Motivation: bribes

Good adult self bribes: junk food, expensive bath products, that thing I saw and put on my amazon wishlist, pedicure.

Things I should bribe myself with: house cleaner, going to bed early, eating some vegetables, visiting big dogs.

Forced Growing:

I think I was supposed to fall in love more when I was young so I knew how to fall out if it by my age!! I just don't like people much and never (hardly ever) want them in my life. Until I do, then I want them in my life forever.

Love greatly

"To live is to be willing to die over and over again."

I'm sad. Today was hard. Being an adult sucks today.

Bad Grown-up

I spent over $300 on myself this weekend.  #theseasonofgiving

I didn't even look at my account balance.  I messaged a friend, "I'm a bad grown-up!"

He messaged back:  "Maybe... But you're a fun person!"

(so I put these pics from the last 9 days together)

Like a grown up

Bad cramps, 6 Advil, freezing outside, 5 hours of sleep: Still at the gym. *even though it is the last thing I want to be doing.

Grown Up Toys!!

WE ARE ALL STARS HERE!

I got my first adult (=expensive and full of functions) HEADLAMP! Of course, from a parent. :-)

I was trying to put batteries in and couldn't find the opening, I googled it, found this video review (3 year old version). It's good . My lamp is awesome.

Grown ups struggle sharing feelings

"...and I'm so tired now, I picked up some cold in all that, and I just want to curl up with a romantic comedy and a pizza and sleep forever." - me, in a text to a friend.

I wanted to add "with you"

But I'm scared what he would say.

(Or not say)
