hello dolly

I was on the road, living nomadically throughout America, for five months in 2019. Read about my adventures (and misadventures) in the blog I kept, Dear Road (https://karmarocca.wixsite.com/dearroad).

Walked a dry riverbed today. Kinda beautiful, also kinda miss actual rivers. #newmexico
I just had East Coast New Years—got a wave of texts at 10. Then I got a mini Central Time New Years at 11. Having friends in all the U.S. time zones makes me smile… and laugh… and want to send everyone Mountain Time New Years when it’s midnight here. 2019 was so good to me, I’m savoring ever last drop. Ever since I stopped drinking (regularly), I’ve liked spending New Years alone (actually, I like doing most things alone). I usually do a lot of going inward, reflecting on the past year and thinking about what I want to bring into the new one. I almost always take a bath (for some reason), meditate, pull cards, and make long, running lists for the year to come. I still remember vividly a New Years on the mountain when I was in my little plastic tub (I used to take baths in a plastic bin) and was just soaking in a salt bath when midnight came around. I knew it was midnight because I heard fireworks and guns going off (West Virginia). I was listening to Bon Iver. Have you ever heard that where you are when the new year starts determines how your year will go? I took that to be figurative—like where your mind is at—and I don’t know that I put much stock in the idea, but just in case it is true, I like to be clear-headed and on some high vibes. Know what I mean? Happy 2020 from Mountain Time.
Hail storming 🤗
Cheers 🌵💫🎄
I tried wearing makeup a long time ago and always thought I looked like a dude who was wearing makeup so I gave up (I was also allergic to most of it). But I do like how easy it is to get fake lashes on Instagram now. #technology
