My life has become too sedate, I need to make more questionable decisions.

That is all.

Also, I like her grandma scarf ⬇️

I’m catching up with my TED talks, there is one called “How to unlock your flirting superpowers”.
There really is something for everyone ☺️

Men are all the same height when you are sitting on their face.

Just sayin’ 😁

Feel free to share the positivity!

My most recent two are “floor blankets” for dust sheets and “road posts” for the signs written on the road.

Woke up today covered in paint and wearing speckled glasses like it’s a new fashion trend. I’d hit my limit yesterday and collapsed into bed without a bath, which is fine, because the roller and tray are soaking in it.

Today I feel like a corpse.

Eating chocolate at 3am is perfectly normal right?

Really good article, I recommend it.
What if being funny isn’t just about making people laugh—it’s a sign of a sharp, intelligent mind?

This is highly impressive and demonstrates exceptionally clever thinking. If you have an interest in medicine, I would strongly recommend reading.

The word armadillo is borrowed from Spanish and simply means “little armored one.” But an even better word for an armadillo, in my opinion, is the Nahuatl ayotochtli. It means “turtle rabbit.”

I called UCAS today and completely forget where I worked 🙃

“Good morning my name is Heather Collins and I’m calling from…….. somewhere…. Oh god where do I work?!”

Laughter on the other end of the phone

Back at the sweaty person place after and absence of 2 months due to health issues. I know I will feel better for it, but conversely, due to the #MECFS I will also feel worse.

But I am back, and it’s raining out so I’m giving myself double adulting points!

No your email did not find me well, it found me singing to my cat 🐈‍⬛
I’ve got my MJ playlist on while I work this afternoon, and I’ve been serenading my cat with “The Way You Make Me Feel”, including all the “hee-hee’s”.
This is his reaction:
