Okay chat, I will say you can definitely wait until Practical Magic 2 comes out on streaming... I’m sorry, but that movie was LONG lol. We went to St. Johns Twin Cinema though, and the seats and vibes were so nice that sitting through it wasn’t too bad. Support your local theaters!

In other news, Bad Suns just announced their 10-year anniversary tour of Disappear Here, so you will be seeing me at Revolution Hall on Jan. 30th crying real tears. They’re basically my version of what One Direction or My Chemical Romance is to other people. I have such fond memories of when that album came out, including my friend and I getting to venues at like 6AM to secure our barricade spot. Don’t judge, I was 17, okay?

Anyways, it’s Win Stuff Wednesday, and I’ve got a very fall giveaway to start us off. Enter to win 5 tickets to Portland’s Original Maize at The Pumpkin Patch on Sauvie Island, a $50 value! The maze is open through Oct. 30th.
