Alicia thank you so much! 💜

You may have these already but if it's at all helpful, my pain management VIPs for tendonitis/tennis elbow were the topical Ibuprofen gel (Voltaren is the brand name) + an arm heating pad (wraps around your arm like a warm ace bandage)

I may not watch sportsball, but I did watch the half-time show from Bad Bunny. ¡Espectacular!

¡Espectáculo inolvidable! So so good, still emotional today 😭

It's been endless hate from the current US administration for our Latiné communities & then for Bad Bunny to get on that stage & give that performance & end with that beautiful parade of Pan-American unity—

"The only thing stronger than hate is love." 😭❤️

#BadBunny's performers continued to dance and party outside the stadium after the #SuperBowl #HalftimeShow

Disturbingly detailed analysis of my first rewatch incoming

In case you missed the moment.

Art is powerful

Oooh what a smart idea!

The apple crisp was good at least! 😂

"y'all fall" is perfect!

That humidity 🫠🫠

💯💯💯

It's amazing how good 85 feels after 100!

We can put cinnamon and pumpkin spice drinks on ice, it's fine, totally still counts as fall 😂🍂

Oooh that sounds lovely! Autumn is a vibe not a temperature (I tell myself, as I have to shut the windows and put on the AC 😅😂)

Autumn in the South is having the temperature drop from 100F/38C to 85F/29C and you go "YAY FALL!" and put an apple crisp in the oven.

Quick update that I've heard from more writers who got this email from "Allie." 😖

This is NOT me; this is likely a marketing scam using my name as a...platonic author pal honey trap?? 🫠

The scammers are wild right now, y'all. Stay safe! 💜

🌈📚

I hate that they used me like this but wanted to share to raise awareness of the scam. Please stay safe out there friends! ❤️
