little miss sunshine.

You’d be correct. It’s hard to win when I’m around. I mean, I guess that’s fair, but I still find that incredibly weird. Flattering? Sure. But what are you supposed to do with that kind of attention, you know? I’m constantly like that standing person emoji, just kind of… There. Not knowing what to do or say. When you say it like that, it feels like the “eventually” is going to come only when it’s years and years down the line.

Well, there’s a certain less play up you have to do as an athlete compared to say, an actress in the public. You’re athletic, you’re stoic, you’re friendly but aloof. When you’re pictured with Mads, or you’re you’re at an event of hers, it’s almost like you have to...perform, play up your ‘persona’. I don’t know, that’s just what I’ve always felt like. I’d say just keep doing what you’re doing, and eventually...years and years down the line...it’ll be white noise.

Private: Of course my love. I will need all the love I can get when Rudy goes to South Carolina and then I’m trying to finish the album in New York. Now tell me all about this tall man.

PM: I’ll give you all the love! We can take cute photos together every day and I can tease Rudy I’m stealing his girl from him. Okay, okay! His name is Taylor, he’s an actor and he’s really, really...good. Just like, a genuinely good person. I haven’t met one of those in a while.

That’s so cute. I’m so happy for you. Taking pictures is so fun. I’ve got a little “vintage” digital camera I carry around on trips because I love the way it makes everything look all dreamy. The art and cemetaries here should be so fun to shoot!

I would say the same but my lens don’t necessarily have effects, it’s just...very dark. I’d say my aesthetic is going to your grandmother’s house and looking at pictures of you in the 90′s or early 00′s, you know? Like, the quality of old developed Kodak photos. But you’re right! Ooh, have you heard of the ghost tours?

You will be my designated positive bestie. Anytime I’m feeling down, I’ll call you up and we’ll turn the mood around together. They say positivity is contagious.

We’re being so gross right now and yet, I love it so much. I think I’m slowly accepting that I’m just internal cringe forever. Are you having fun on the trip?

I can provide this service all night if you would like. And that is a reason why you are incredible. I mean you are unfailingly the hottest to me, but you still have a kind heart and level head about it

I know, it was hot falling asleep to you whispering it to me. Well, I know it’s just makeup products and hair professionals and expensive designers dressing me that makes me look so untouchable but I also know it’s not real. Are you going to get lit with me at the parade?

We’re here and have a free day tomorrow, I think means it’s time to get the tequila flowing for you. 

If you can come find me at the parade, let’s do it! Mama’s ready to forget tonight and be fucked up tomorrow.

Lili is excited and honored to be one of the Grand Marshals at the City of Dreams Pride Parade in New Orleans, Louisiana. Don’t forget to come over and shower her in beads, kisses, and affection!

No definitely going too. Ah I think we are going to make that happen like now. But I have to argue that my date is the hottest one here.

Please. Wrap me up in those strong arms, honey. Everyone looks amazing, so it’s a tough competition but I won’t argue with you because I enjoy you calling me hot.

I’m not, but you never know what could have happened. Plus, I wouldn’t have Sasha and that kid is my whole world. Don’t you dare.

Sasha was always meant to be yours, I know. I might! If you keep being rude to me, I’ll tear it all down and make it a Charles room.

Alright, alright Im going to step back and let you do your magic.

Thank you. It really is pointless to fight on me on gift buying. Humble brag but I’m the queen of it.

Oh? I have a feeling I’ll be like a lost puppy if I just watched your scenes, trying to figure out what’s going on. Guess I gotta dive in head first.

Let me know when you get to the Gargoyle King or when the cult leader Edgar Evernever tries to build a rocket ship to get off the planet. Have fun!

Ah, my heart, I bet she would. Putting her heart and soul into everything. Sure you’ve formed some friendships for life though, right? That’s the beauty of it, you might have to say goodbye to the show, but they stick with you.

Let me know if you decide to get it so I can ooh and ahh and gush over it. I have! It’ll just be weird not being in the same city as them constantly or seeing them everyday. But I know we’ll work hard to stay close.

Yeah she just poked my pendant and gave me all her bad vibes. I didn’t know what to say. I don’t know, there’s always a fear of turning into the thing you hate. I was always worried I’d turn into my parents, marriage scares me because I’m worried I’ll turn into my mother but I’m so excited to get married. 

I really think you can break generational cycles of trauma simply by choosing to be the exact opposite of what fucked you up. Some things are genetic, like diseases or an affinity to certain things but behavior can always be learned and changed. I bet you’ll be a great dad and husband one day!

Private: Because we are far apart, my darling. Not my fault you work in another country. 

PM: But that’ll be ending sooner than you think. Then will you come over and love me?

Nat: Yeah, it’s not a comfortable position to be in for anyone. But obviously there’s a reason for it and that makes it a little better. It’s just messing up my plans for the year a bit, but I’ll be fine. Ha, I know that all too well. You got this ;)

Exactly that. I agree completely. Oh there is, I feel like you probably could pick up The Mandalorian without any previous Star Wars knowledge, but there is a few hints to the main franchise. Not so much that the series won’t make sense if you don’t know about it, but you certainly have to have an interest in it otherwise it’s just a space cowboy trying to protect a magic baby for unknown reasons. Oh thank you! I have been too excited for this, I’m not doing anything in half measures, and I’ve had tucking tips from 3 different people because my pants are Olivia Newton John tight and my honey and I are trying to get pregnant so I need to protect what I can, you know? Are you performing?

Well that might be a relief because I feel a little overwhelmed thinking about watching all those films. I know the basic Star Wars lore - Leia and Luke are siblings, Leia and Han Solo are OTP, Darth Vader is Luke’s father, and so on and so on. Also, apparently everybody thirsts over Kylo Ren. I was right, you were incredible. And good luck on the conception journey! I performed but purely to give Lady Gaga the tribute she deserved. I never pass singing Lady Gaga karaoke.
