The CK Daily – A Lot Going on at the Moment
Good morning, CK Family!
I hope everyone is having a great week so far. I’ll be honest, I’ve been sitting here thinking about what to write about for quite some time. There are days where these blurbs come easy and there are some where it feels impossible to think of something to share. But, to be honest – I chuckled at myself for what I’ll write about today and it’s only because I was shocked that I’ve held out this long. Maybe it’s because I didn’t want to have any Bad Blood with anyone!
You may have heard of the term “Swiftie”. I’m not sure I’d consider myself an over-the-top “Swiftie” but I think I know enough and keep up with enough, and also spend enough money on things to consider myself a pretty big fan of all things Taylor Swift. She’s been all the rage lately, especially within the NFL but I won’t dive into that.
In April, the day before my baby shower, I attended the Eras tour in Atlanta with two of my best friends, and when I tell you…the concert was incredible! Even if you aren’t a Taylor Swift fan, it’s quite the show and very entertaining. I loved every second of singing as loud as I could with everyone there and thinking back to when I was younger singing some of her classic songs. It was such a sweet time. Since then, I’ve been so invested in the “What’s next?” She keeps us on our toes! Dropping hints, asking us to solve puzzles, and so much more to welcome the next best things she’s going to release or share. It keeps me on my toes!
As someone who works in marketing, I will stand by a statement I made a while ago now and that is that Taylor Swift is one of the best marketers of all time. She knows what her customers want, how to keep them engaged, how to interact with them, and much more. She’s killing the game and I look forward to seeing what she does next.
Anywho, this Friday is another exciting day in the “Swiftie” world because Taylor is releasing her Eras Tour film! I Should Have Said No to going but truthfully, I can’t wait to be there and relive the experience but this time with my mom, both of my aunts, and my cousin! I know it’s going to be Enchanted. We’re going to be living for the hope of it all and dancing in our best dress! Can’t wait to recap that with you all next week, and then, I promise, I’ll lay off the “Swiftie” news for a while so I don’t damage my Reputation with you all.
Grateful for you all and hope you have a safe and sound rest of the week!
Long Live,
Ashley
ps: I hope you enjoyed my song references throughout!
