Hi, I’m Tara. I charted, graphed and tracked 99 Taylor Swift songs for 3 years looking for answers. I didn't find what I expected. This is my journey down a rabbit hole to Wonderland 1/13 3 years ago, I drove solo from St. Pete, FL to New Orleans for a girls trip. I spent 12 hours with windows down, snacks in my lap and @taylorswift13 blaring from my speakers. 1989 had just come out. I had tickets to see her 12th row at @RJStadium on Halloween night 2/13

A man on this flight said no to swapping seats, splitting up a mother and her two kids. It was awkward. Another guy volunteered to move, letting them be together on the plane. Everyone clapped. I’m imagining how embarrassed the first man is right now He didn’t want to swap seats because he couldn’t leave his overhead bag. He was asked to move two rows forward. The flight attendant was less than pleased with him. It. Was. So. Awkward.
