i went to visit ernest hemingway’s former home in key west today. we took a guided tour through the house and it was so, so great. the grounds were crawling with cats, 45 cats to be exact. needless to say, i was in heaven. all the cats are descended from hemingway’s cat snowball and half of them have six toes. i was honestly “bawwwwww”ing and calling a cat...

today has been such a long, exciting day. i awoke at 3:15 this morning, and left for the airport at four. first we flew from austin to dallas, where we met up with six other members of my family, then flew to miami from dallas. our arrival in miami was late, so we missed our flight to key west and all ten of us just chilled in the airport for a few hours till the next flight. we flew to key west...

i’m going to sleep right this second, because i’m leaving the house at four in the morning. i’m off to key west, florida for a week. i’ll probably be on a little bit, maybe. but if i’m not, i love you all and i hope the remainder of your christmas break is lovely!
i’m honestly considering a break from tumblr/flickr/the internet once the new year begins.
