 another vlog and my first vlog back in the US. I've actually been back home for five days now. I've just taken my time like getting back into the swing of things, getting back into work, getting back into my sleep schedule. The reason I talk about sleep in vlogs and I guess I've never really touched on it that much but I mean I'm pretty sure I have insomnia. Both of my parents struggle with insomnia and I definitely like in just normal life struggle with insomnia so like or at least being up in the middle of the night. I don't know if I'm like officially got it or anything but I struggle sleeping through the night. I have no problems falling asleep like ever. I just wake up in the middle of the night and then I usually go back to sleep a few hours later but anyways just adding jet lag to the mix has not really helped but honestly it's weird because this like coming back over has been harder. Usually it's the opposite like when we went to Japan it was way worse coming home because I heard it's like worse traveling east I believe for jet lag but this I don't know if it's just because I've like been at home and when we got to the UK we pretty much just like hit the ground running and we did stuff every single day. I don't know if that's why it was easier for me to adjust and like being at home I'm like sitting there on the couch like Anywho we're back and I've been editing all day long. I've been in an editing black hole. I like literally just finished. I've been editing so many vlogs and main channel videos from my time in the UK and I can't wait for everyone to see them and I enjoyed my time so so much. I miss it already. Alex and I were literally just texting today like did we just do that? Do we actually just go to England again? Like because it feels like a dream. Feels like I woke up from a dream and then like I have all this footage from said dream but it feels good to be back and tonight we're actually going on like a little double date with our friends Josh and Noel. We haven't really like hung out with them and honestly I lost like a month of my life. I'm not kidding. We had friends in town from Arizona and then Drew got sick for like a week and then I got sick for like a week and a half and then we got busy with like a bunch of other stuff and then I went out the country for like a week and some change so it feels good to just sort of like be back in my everyday routine and we're gonna have like a fun little catch up with our friends and we're gonna like you'll see obviously I'll be vlogging tonight but we're gonna like pop around, do some happy hour, get some dinner at one of our favorite places that we haven't been to since actually we visited. The kind of most dramatic thing that's happened since we moved here and nobody panic it's all good now but we did have a mouse or a rat inside of our apartment the other day. It was actually the day after I flew back so we flew back from England on a Thursday we got in the evening and I pretty much just like went to sleep and then Friday morning Drew was sitting in our room I was like sitting in bed on the laptop like this. Drew do you want to come be a part of this story? We've come full circle from our Phoenix apartment. Drew was standing in our living room and we keep loose food in our closet because Layla would eat it without and also our air vents are at the bottom of the wall which I've never seen before. So bottom of the wall is a smoker baseboard I was talking to Carey she was in bed I was standing in the doorway and your face went white. Out of the corner of my eye this side. There's a little I think it was little but also it was like literally two seconds if that and I was sitting in bed so I couldn't see anything. Out of our closet I was eating loose food and jumped into the the bottom air vent and the air vents in our room and then the one on the living room they're very like ornace like spacious yeah like rock iron like very like yeah tiny type thing yeah so just jumped in it and it was it was off and so we're sit I'm sitting there we're just having a conversation and all of a sudden he jumps back and he's like and he gasps so loud and he just puts his hand over his mouth and I'm like what what like I thought it was a spider because let's be honest you do bring the drama he's a very arachnophobic person he was like under his hand and I was like what are you saying and then he just like like he like moved his hand into sandwiching he was like it was a rat and I was like shut up I was like shut up and I could tell by his reaction he was not joking so quite literally he watched and then he was like second-guessing himself he's like I think I saw that like you were like it was definitely yeah of course but you know when like something like that happens I was just like we what how we were so confused so we like it's all good surprisingly well actually I was kind of freaking out I was like we have to move we have to move it happened on a Friday mm-hmm it was the morning after I got back and then the contract makes about till Monday morning yeah so we're kind of panicking so all events were closed over the weekend we were hot we're hot but we survived he came yesterday he put wire-matching on like every single air vent in this house he put a new morning every gap you could find would you call that on like the bottom of the cabinets what he did like he just put new like faceboards or like so there was a gap underneath the cabinet where the door okay there was a gap we filled up all the gaps went in every single closet with his flashlight like filled up every single where the air duct comes out from like our upstairs and even where he put like some of the meshing like most of the meshing he used this like like caulking kind of thing like so that there was just like literally no way that anything could get in here so it's nice to because we actually have had a problem with spiders since moving to this apartment that's a whole other thing there was a spider in our bed there's a spider on the wall no it was like a spider like this big like in our bed like it was in our bed when we were in our bed I killed it with our remote after after I know you yeah absolutely so anyway story time is over that's it hopefully that's the last of that it's not abnormal like it's a really old apartment so it's all good it's not we haven't like it's not like our other place where we could hear it at the ceiling 24-7 and I could feel I'm under the bathtub and I don't I think it was a mouse because Drew was like describing it happened so fast and I feel like you would know if it was a like a giant rat you know he said it was like really tiny so anyway oh it like and I asked him I go was it cute and he goes yeah long story short we're all good everything's fine that's what I'm telling myself anyway we survived and now back to the regularly scheduled content but that was quite the warm welcome back into my home I like honestly feel fine about it now it's all good but yikes so anyways I actually am giving my little lashes a break from the lashes that I was using when I was in the UK I was still using the like flutter habit they may sponsor me at this point but these like DIY lash extensions but I'm just like giving my lashes a little break I've been using the lash serum so I'm like waiting for it to kick in hopefully it'll be soon think I'm gonna do like a brown eyeliner tonight sounds fun actually this is like way too long of a clip already so I'm gonna finish getting ready and then we will reconvene I'm gonna like get dressed and get ready to head out the door and have a fun little double date night I'm so excited alright we have gotten ourselves mostly ready I really do think that's not I'm not farting that's the floor creaking case you were wondering I really do think that lash serum is starting to work or at least just that my lashes are like finally recovering from what I took off my eyelash extensions so I'm actually like kind of pleased they look pretty good so what I think I'm gonna wear tonight I have a couple different options I thrifted a really really cute dress when I was in the UK it's this brown dress it's got polka dots if you watched my thrifting in England video you probably saw this and it's really really cute but I would have to wear boob tape to like stick it up to the top but I was thinking this with like some cowboy boots might be really cute or I also recently thrifted ignore that okay we're just not gonna talk about it I also recently thrifted this vintage gap denim dress and I thought with like a little white tee underneath and maybe some cowboy boots or at some loafers that would be also very adorable and a hundred percent I saw this outfit in slow on tiktok I don't know why I'm like really feeling the denim because it's like it's kind of fallish but it's not I actually brought this with me to England and then I just never got around to it and I was like I'll just wear it when I'm back in LA so okay let's try this on we'll play around with it oh my god it's so cute okay that is very cute hold on we're gonna ignore this first of all this room is always a mess but this was me like trying to purge some of this this is all gonna go like in storage oh see that's what I'm nervous about I'm worried about these snaps coming and done like if I sit down here with the boots true true so that's why somebody aren't rid of this dress it is very cute though like this outfit pretty cute but also this is another option the green it's brown back to the drawing board because this is like it's whole place okay this is really super cute and I could probably get away without wearing the boob tape but I do think I'm just gonna do like two small pieces this had good reviews on Amazon and I purchased it to have for emergencies for this very reason oh is it like two pieces wait okay sure all right that works pretty well actually I'm gonna do some glossy you perfume shit smells so good I think I saw my friend Macy using this perfume and then I've seen like a bunch of people recommend it on like Instagram and stuff and it's good it's like very clean smelling so I like that I just put on some gloss this is like a fenty gloss and then I have a brown eyeliner on just trying something a little different I'm gonna put on the cowboy boots or the loafers I'm gonna go cowboy boots I'm with my Tennessee friends you know they'll appreciate it I'm actually quite shocked that I managed to get it ready in like a decent amount of time took me like 15 minutes I'm pretty impressed with myself to be honest friends are on their way we'll probably call an Uber and that's the look for tonight how cute oh what bag do I want this one I'm gonna need to carry my vlog camera so I think I'm going to just carry the purse that I had when I was in England so I'll just do this one because it matches literally everything oh I'm gonna take a last sip of water I bought this cup this freaking $40 cup because everyone was talking about it on Instagram and literally like it's kind of like a hydro flask but it's like in a cup and honestly it's kind of great I won't lie if you're like me and you're like your crispy cold water I would recommend it it's huge and very heavy it's very insulated it's bigger than my hydro flask but for like keeping at home or even just like taking with me in like keeping in the car in the cup holder kind of iconic I've seen a lot of content around this it's called a Stanley Cup which is kind of funny because that's the name of like the hockey trophy but I actually do like it and it is $40 and they're like extremely backordered I think I just I don't remember where I ordered mine someone posted it on Instagram stories and so I bought it I think like Urban Outfitters has them as well as like some Whole Foods but yeah mini review it's honestly great just as good as my hydro flask but like I would prefer it more for like at home and I like that I can just and instead of like open the lid type of thing anyway that's been my review cheers let's hit the road love my life every time I pass this restaurant which is called James Beach I think of number one the time that I ate there like freaking 13 years ago but also number two I think about the movie I love you man because they go there and it's just such an iconic movie and it makes my heart warm every single time okay let's go eat dinner starting off with a kale salad which truly is one of the best kale salads or just salads in general that I've ever had in my life there's like a Parmesan I think almonds avocado some kind of delicious dressing it's amazing okay we got some lemon cello drops Noel got a lamb brusco which we are gonna share it is a large part they did they did warn ya we got our salad we have some crispy eggplant which looks absolutely phenomenal we also got some crispy provolone and we haven't even ordered dinner yet absolutely oh my f***ing god I'm your part in my friends but we have a spicy rigatoni we have a rachetelli which is like some kind of spicy pork situation we have a pizza like a honey chili pepperoni pizza we have some kind of like marata situation and then also cacio e tepe is it good it's like much better than I expected this spicy rigatoni is no joke all right we're dessert we have a peaches and cream it's a cup of beer this is where we're at the dinner party I'm not explaining anyways Nutella mousse or something and peaches and cream
