This isn’t the Saturday Morning Cartoon you were expecting, but it’ll probably be better than drinking a $5 cup of coffee with powdered creamer, you know?

Now I start over, and rebuild, and confront fear and learn to drive alone and figure out how to secure Eli in the loft so I can still snuggle with him at night. Now I have to hang the art I’ve collected from friends over the years, find a place for my autographed Eileen Myles books, and learn to do yoga. Now I need to meet all the versions of myself hiding in this city and make friends with every single one of them.

Spring break is the perfect time of year for a road trip through the desert! Or anywhere, really. You’re gonna need the right music and Autostraddle’s got you covered.
