Well that was an epic fail
That email I was hoping for was bearing bad news. I’m really depressed. Fixing an extremely strong drink and going to bed early. Fuck.

Sometimes you're the windshield.
There’s this phrase my dad uses, goes something like, “sometimes you’re the bug, and sometimes you’re the windshield.” I used to think it was oddly comforting, as if you’re always one step ahead of life catching up to you.

On Bars
That awkward moment when you just wanna go have an appletini, but the bar is 23+ and your age gap with your fella suddenly seems a lot weirder.

Yogabending
Ok so maybe this is a little silly, but lately when I’ve been doing yoga, I’ve been focusing on really sticking the moves and pushing as hard as I can with my body, and it sort of feels like being a waterbender. Waterbending is based on tai chi so it kind of makes sense. I just really like the feeling of expelling energy when I do a move, and trying to draw it back in when I do the...

Hogwarts Envelope Clutch!
Buy an envelope style clutch, and replace the snap closure with a big red button (to look like a wax seal), and write on the flat back side: Mr. H Potter the Cupboard Under the Stairs 4 Privet Drive Little Whinging Surrey I am a genius.

On being prepared

Today has been so full of win
I got a yummy, free lunch at the new Pret A Manger by work, with a chicken avocado sandwich, brownie, popcorn, and sparkling orange juice, and bought mittens so soft and warm that I want to have sex with them. Also my new haircut looks super cute and 30 Day Shred is showing results! Thanks for the win, universe.

On country songs
That awkward moment when you try to express your complete and utter lack of enthusiasm, but no words come to mind and then you realize that your “give a damn” really is busted.

Because I'm a rando
Just remembered I had a hot lesbian dream about a childhood friend. We were like the wonder twins or Will Smith and Charleze Theron in Hancock, and our magic lesbian powers only worked when we made out. I told her I didn’t love her and then she died. Also at some point there were 18-wheelers and a copy of Glamour magazine. Carry on.
