My toxic trait is getting really hungry while I'm cooking dinner and snacking while I cook, but then I eat too many snacks and I finish this nice meal I've made but I'm no longer hungry
We got a wedding invite in the mail today from my partners friend addressed to [Partners first name] & [my first name] [partners last name]
We aren't married. My last name is not his, nor will it be after we're married. I think i got a glimpse into a lifetime of mildly angering experiences.

Last night I watched a play that takes place in essentially the end of the world and it put me into a total existential crisis.

See the problem with the 4th of July is I don't like being American but I do love a cookout and people have established that day for cookouts and like I'm not gonna say no to a thing I really like

I saw someone call Highland Park, IL, a small town. Another example of the extreme disconnect between Chicagoland and the entire rest of Illinois.

Me to my therapist: I'm just waiting on that ring
Therapist: Oh so you ARE hoping to get married
Me: Homegirl all I said was all of my friends getting engaged isn't making me feel pressure to follow suit. That doesn't mean I too do not want to get engaged

Of the like 7 things pissing me off about grad school, one of them is that my assistantship supervisor can just change my schedule/add hours within 2 weeks without talking to me. Despite the fact that the schedule has stood as it is for over a month

The former pastor of my childhood church pointed out to me before she moved away a few years ago how everything in that community is cyclical. You grow up in that small school, become (mostly) either a nurse, teacher, farmer, or factory labor, have kids, get a house, settle down. Repeat.

You know the number one like childhood resentment I have?
I wanted a purple bedroom. When I was 12ish my parents did a full remodel on my bedroom. I begged to paint it a royal purple. My mom said that was an absolute no. No dark colors. SOMEHOW we landed on yellow. I dont know how. It's obnoxious.

The change that happens when your body starts being plus size and you stop being able to find clothes in your size that are well made and also don't look like a bag is such a mind fuck. Body positivity is so much work.

It's hard when hiring people ask me in interviews what I want for my life in 5 years and my only answer is homeownership. Jobs schmobs. I want a job that helps me buy a home.

Fun isn't your family farm going out of business or your grocery prices being driven up.
All because Trump sold out farmers for his friends at Mar-a-Lago.
