L I L Y is it embarrassing that i'm kind of sore from yoga yesterday?

[elyse condon]

e l l i e I'm telling you, the short blonde instructor kills me every time.

[lily mccarthy]

L I L Y she had us do so many chaturangas i felt like i was holding a plank half the class! i have no idea how you went back to back, stronger than me.

[elyse condon]

e l l i e you should see her Pilates classes, my legs were straight jello. That can be our next adventure. Once you’ve recovered. But the burn feels so good!

[lily mccarthy]

L I L Y It does! And honestly feels nice to get back into a workout routine, please keep me accountable. Pilates wobbles and all. How’s your day been?

[elyse condon]

e l l i e It also doubles as a good distraction. And gives you amazing legs. I’ll be the best accountability buddy 🫶🏻 I’m ok! Have the post vacation blues. Need to plan something else asap. How about you?

[lily mccarthy]

L I L Y So fair, all I could think about was not face planting. Was quite the trip but agree - nice to just have no agenda and no one to answer to! Iiii am in a furniture spiral right now, trying to get my office in a good place and have someone coming to figure out how to built out my closet. Writing some. Very adult of me!

[elyse condon]

e l l i e You crushed it though! Did you get any reading done?! I feel like every time you tried to get the book out, we were distracting you. You’ve been so productive, wow! Any ideas on how you want the closet done? Omg music?!!

[lily mccarthy]

L I L Y That tour cardio holding on for dear life. No, haha, like one chapter maybe. Wasn’t really a reading trip if we’re behind honest - I caught up to everyone eventually! Just want to maximize the space, I suddenly have so much room. And yeah, haha. Y’know, lots to write about these days…

[elyse condon]

e l l i e Did you have to train on the road? Or is that a myth? Once the shots kept coming, your book was tucked away. I could live in your closet it’s so huge. I always envisioned you’d eventually have a giant shoe wall, or two. Are we still blocked?

[lily mccarthy]

L I L Y I didn't have to sand my set wasn't super dancey, but if you weren't in some kind of shape then I could have seen it getting harder the longer it went on because we were always so tired! Oh shoe organization is definitely coming, my boots need to shine. And for now, yes. I think it's deserved.

[elyse condon]

e l l i e Makes sense! It probably also gives you a routine and some structure, to basically the same thing every night! Thank god. They really do! I think he deserves to be blocked forever. But I know you have a heart of gold, so glad it hear it’s still a thing right now.

[lily mccarthy]

L I L Y The vocal marathon was almost harder, I sometimes thought my voice was never going to come back. You and Cleo both, I'm sure. I feel like she's going to be mad at me for a long time. Speaking of the silly boy band though, are you still talking to Taylor?

[elyse condon]

e l l i e It’s already gorgeously raspy too. Couldn’t have helped! Why did you keep it from her? That surprised me, tbh. Yes. He’s a very good distraction. I haven’t thought about Theo in a while!

[lily mccarthy]

L I L Y Lots of tea and silent days, how I made it through. I didn't tell anyone - honestly, I've kept a lot of this whole 'fame' experience to myself. Half to figure out how to process it on my own, and half because sometimes it was just hard to talk about in a way that sounded relatable. Sometimes when I'd try she'd get this look on her face like I was bragging so I'd just change the subject. They also have a weird history, so. Easier to avoid. I didn't realize that you felt so seriously about him, too.
