Hello, Almost Fall! We’ve had a pretty hot summer in DC and as always, I’m very ready for it to be over. PSLs have arrived and Halloween decor is in many stores, so things are looking up. 🙂
Ready to see what beauty products I emptied in August 2024? These are my skin care empties:
1. Deadpool & Wolverine Funko Pops: I’m still obsessed with this record-breaking movie that I had the privilege of watching in Hall H at SDCC. John and I saw the movie last weekend and I enjoyed the hell out of it the second time around. After returning from San Diego, I saw on Instagram that Funko had Pops of these best bubs. Obviously, I ordered both immediately. They’ll be a cute reminder of the all-timer experience that I had in Hall H!
If you thought I was finished posting about SDCC 2024, you would be mistaken. I have one more post in me regarding this year’s con: my nerdy haul!
I had a fantastic time at San Diego Comic-Con 2024 (my 14th year!). The con went by so quickly, and I’m sad that it’s already over. As always, I’m here to recap my experience in a long post with entirely too many photos. Part of the reason for this post’s length is (Spoiler Alert!) the fact that I had the privilege to attend the Deadpool & Wolverine panel in Hall H!! HUMBLEBRAG x 1,000,000!
Happy August! I just got back from San Diego Comic-Con on Monday and managed to hammer out this empties post in my post-con glow-slash-haze. Please stay tuned for my SDCC recap coming soon!
Let’s move on to the beauty products that I emptied last month, shall we?
My fourteenth San Diego Comic-Con will be here next week! This year should be the most “normal” con since 2019, due to two years of ramping back up post-pandemic and then the SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes last summer.
Every year I share a post offering tips based on my experience for SDCC newbies. For packing suggestions, scroll allllll the way to the bottom. Additionally, I recommend the SDCC Unofficial Blog—an excellent resource.
VERY long post ahead, nerds!
Happy July! As my Pilates instructor pointed out in class this morning, 2024 is now officially halfway over. Wild!
We returned yesterday from a whirlwind of a long weekend, so I’m slightly late putting my June empties post together. Last Thursday morning I took Amtrak to NYC for a dinner that night, then on Friday we flew to Austin for my niece’s sweet 16 party on Saturday. Then we flew out of Austin early on Sunday. Our Friday flight out of JFK was delayed EIGHT hours (how fun), so we unfortunately didn’t get as much much time to spend with my family as we had anticipated. At least we made it to celebrate my niece!
I emptied SO many products in June—full sized, minis, and some sheet masks. I had some declutters as well.
This will be my final post about our Tulum vacation (I still miss it!). I’ve already written about the delicious meals we ate on our trip. Now I’m here to share the souvenirs and other goodies that we brought home.
First up: Mexican beauty products!
You may have read (or…at least partially read) my long recap of our recent Tulum vacation. In it, I mentioned that I wanted to do a separate post with food and drink photos so that my recap wouldn’t get even longer than it already was. So, here I am with said post.
Now that my 46th birthday has come and gone, it’s time to post about the gifts I received. I am very lucky to have gotten a plethora of fun stuff from loved ones! This first photo shows most of the gifts from my parents, minus a couple things that arrived late:
