One of my dear friends just wrote a poetry book that’s coming out later this year and I was lucky enough to read a very early draft. It’s called “I’m Sad and Horny” and it’s SO GOOD. Highly recommend (not because I also wrote the forward) -AJ

An epistolary love-poem that found its way to me during a totally psychotic time in my life, this, as well as Jamie Hood’s how to be a good girl, inspired me to start writing my own poetry. My dear friend was reading Coeur de Lion back when we lived together & would text me photos of stanzas that stuck out to her. We would would often have long conversations about men (obviously), boundaries, relationships, sex, self growth, etc, etc. Those conversations as well as these brilliant words by Ariana have a special place in my heart. In April, this excerpt struck me the most, “I guess there’s no point saying these things we did. We know what we did. But stating them is like reinstating them inside me.” Moody!!!!! Kinda dark!!!!! Real good if you’re into that kinda thing. God knows I am!!!!! Xoxo

My Shih Tzu/Bichon mix is going to be 19 this year and I consider that pretty ancient. Her name is Willow and I’ve had her since I was 16. She even toured with us back in 2007. -AJ

We made our upcoming album in Topanga Canyon with Jonathan Wilson and lived there together as a family over the course of a month (yes, it was heaven) Every day we’d get the frozen yogurt from the local country mart down the street and it’s truly the best froyo I’ve ever had. I prefer a swirl in case you were wondering. Not to mention, they source their produce from the Santa Monica farmers market and their bread from Gjusta. -AJ

My Dad gave my son a radio flyer wagon for Christmas this past year and I love going on neighborhood rides with him. I fill it with pillows and blankets for extra cushioning since he’s on the little side but I’m excited for the day when he’s pulling it himself. -Aly
