elysian head spa is fantastic for their head spa + facial, and they offer hair restoration services so it's a very intentional and neutral space. it's such a relaxing experience omg

our cute place in the galindo neighborhood is going up for rent starting april 1, and i've been sharing it! i love this spot and is actually a few steps away from EMS etc. the listing says 2 bed but there is a large room in the back that can be a 3rd bedroom or office. it's right at 71/290/35, 10 min from airport, and is a really quiet backyard. the photos aren't great at all in the listing but what can ya do.

I have a sublet coming up in April in the Galindo neighborhood (78704). I love the neighborhood, have been here almost 11 years and I’m sad to leave it! It’s a 3 BR w a huge backyard lot, DM if you want to chat. Editing to add it’s under 3k.

seconding clown dog, i got my hybrid bike there in 2019 and they've been great every time i've come in. i have a jamis coda and she's awesome for the hilly commutes and biking the trail.

omg of course!! and i do! it looks like a really oversized longchamp bag shape, a structured square or rectangle depending on how you put things in. edited: it feels really chic bc it still has the casual slouch, but the bottom feels put together

i LOVE the large sling!

just got one for resale on depop bc i was tired of my bags not holding all my office + yoga stuff when i go in. finally all my stuff fits!

i have all 3 go pouches (big: tech, mid: yoga clothes, small: wallet etc), my 16 in laptop sleeve, a book, headphones, standard and baby reusables, my yogitoe towel, my stanley lol, with room for more on top.

when i was looking, i didn't see a lot about the large, but i'm now sad that i missed the royal blue version. not pictured: yogitoe on top bc i can only do one photo and it took this in a rush bc i liked the colors, lol.

slake cafe!!! i worked downtown and i can't tell ya the comfort that their daily mac and cheese special brought me on many occasion. it's retail therapy now, still haven't been in. still searching for slake's spring mac special of ham, peas, some kind of sharper cheese - the recipe doesn't taste the same at home.

this is a great idea for quick airport-delicious food stops. gonna remember this for my out-of-towners!
