It’s the most wonderful time of the year...my seasonal glow-up! ❄️💁🏼‍♀️ I feel like I finally have the modern waves + sweater ensemble of a Hallmark Christmas movie heroine!! It won’t last long, but who knows what could happen while I have it! So I took my new hair to a secret downtown art thing where I sat on the floor & drank wine & someone sang a song about magic vaginas. That was just the kind of feel-good holiday special I didn’t know I was looking for! 🎄💫 (hair by @treavius)

Spent this rainy day editing a new episode for @mermaidpodcast, then braved the rain to see the Christmas tree lighting in Washington Square Park. I got kind of choked up watching people huddle under the arch and share sheet music for Christmas carols. Then a pigeon flew out of the Christmas tree and I might have gasped loudly. Also now that I have fancy new lipstick, I’m not sure I know where my lips end and how have I lived this many years not knowing how my mouth is arranged? Happy festive season to you and also to the pigeons who gentrified that tree.

Awww, you kids love when I wear a bathing suit, travel, am critically acclaimed, rebrand, release a book, and travel some more. But you really, really like it when I wear a bathing suit. You might be pervs, but you’re *my* pervs. 😘😍 #topnine2019

I braved the post office to mail umpteenth bajillion packages. BUT! I was rewarded by also picking up surprises I had kind of forgotten I ordered. Thanks to the beauty influencing of @ekingstonbooks & @authorandiej, I’m now a member of the @lisaeldridgemakeup fan club. (I got #velvetribbon & #skyscraperrose.) Even more thrilling, my @redhot100 2020 calendar arrived! When I would go to bed after a long night of prepping the ebook release of PUMPKIN POUNDER, I would scroll through that feed & remind myself of all the handsome gingers who should be romance heroes. The 2020 calendar is millennial pink, filled with all nude gentlemen and called Red Hot Cocks. I got the 2019 American Boys calendar for research. Obviously. A very merry Christmas to me! #redhot100 #lisaeldridgemakeup #gingersunite

Happy birthday to the little nugget who made me a big sister. We’ve been each other’s biggest fans since Day 1. (Also we really need to bring back the matching nightgowns.) 🥰

Last night I took the LIRR to Thanksgiving dinner & was fully prepared to bitch & moan about Penn Station holiday travel, until I squeezed in next to a lovely grumpy gentleman who explained some stuff about train tracks and something about toxic material needing to be taken out of Queens? I think he decided I was lost, and even though I wasn’t, I still appreciated the opportunity to be extra found. While transferring trains at Jamaica, a woman who was also carrying a lot of champagne joined me in bitching about why we hadn’t thought to buy the wine closer to our destinations. And also how Trader Joe’s seems totally worth it until you’re hauling your groceries on public transportation. Anyway, I had a great time with my fellow holiday journeymen and I almost won Trivial Pursuit after dinner. Waiting for the train home, I remembered that everything in New York looks like the contemplative part of a movie. I’m really grateful for my friends and also my fellow cranky New Yorkers. Love you gritty-glam grumpy-poos!

YOU HAVE ALWAYS BEEN THE COOLEST!
Episode 10: Laura has to declutter, which is almost as bad as being a morning person. Laura found her high school journal which reveals that she has always been a Machiavellian mastermind, at least in regards to prom and student government. This reminds her that she has always been the coolest, and so have you. Also, Laura might be an emerging water witch - you heard it on the podcast first!

It’s been a month since PUMPKIN POUNDER released! The good thing about having a story inspired by The Nighmare Before Christmas is that it has double the holiday feels! 🎄🎃 That’s why I included a pizza date scene in the middle of the book as my ode to all the random New York restaurants who keep the festive lights on all year round. Never change, New York! Swipe to see a quick video about some of the things that inspired Pumpkin Pounder. And while I did not write a book about a girl who loves pumpkin spice lattes too much, I did include a good #pslseason joke for your fall feels. Thank you for reading...and paperbacks coming soooooon! 👻👨🏻‍🦰💫 #pumpkinpounder #bookstagram #holidayromance
