Getting something useful out of my celebrity-content consumption. See: Oprah on carpet-cleaning and Jane Fonda on escaping handcuffs.
Spotting the term “glow up”—which is basically an especially dramatic puberty transformation—all over the place all of a sudden.
Revisiting my deep, deep teen-years love of collaging and magazine cut-outs.
Urging you to 1) read Kayleen Schaefer’s wonderfully insightful book on female friendship, Text Me When You Get Home 2) distribute it to your besties 3) listen to this. Lots of to-dos, I know, but all worthwhile and satisfying ones.

Feeling comforted knowing that I’m not alone in my inability to remember key details of even the best books soon after I’ve finished them.

Still struggling to understand how these buy-in-bulk-worthy, highly addictive, cheesy tasting crackers...don’t have cheese in them.
Treating myself to a fancy facial at Rescue Spa and immediately getting what all the fuss is about—some serious magic being performed over there.
