I don’t know what it is about this week specifically, but I’m real fuckin’ tired of all the “people in the Midwest are aliens and I can’t possibly comprehend their humanity and omg literally all their food is like, unrecognizable?!” BS that is EVERYWHERE right now. Maybe I reached my tipping point with Terri Gross…

God, I needed this this afternoon. I had a terrible morning with someone telling me that my boss’ boss just completely dislikes me for absolutely no reason and it hurt my feelings so baldy and I’ve been so down ever since then, and this actually made me smile and feel happy again today. Thanks.

Eat at Lokal!! Feast. Drink. Feast and drink some more. Reservations definitely recommended, but we made friends with (read: smiled at and were polite to) a waitress and she got us a table in two seconds.  

I think it’s very normal for travellers. I chalk it up to not drinking as much water as I normally do and typically eating fewer veggies/roughage and more restaurant/on-the-go food which can stop me up real good. On a recent long trip I made a point of taking probiotics every day and drinking as much water as I…

Oh god, I recently had similar revelations at our local amusement park. The roller coaster that I rode over and over and over when I was 14 now hurts my body because it turns out being over 30 means you have all these terrible images in your head because of all the news stories you’ve read about things going terribly…

Yeah, I recall that, too - there’s a scene after Gale’s death where Hank is questioning Gus’ connection to Gale and I think it was scholarship-related. Gus probably played a smart long-game of making connections to chemists for future use, just in case.

I loved her character so, so much. I love that she hooked up with the other guy because she wanted to and that it didn’t ruin her relationship with Cassius. For some reason, that spoke to me so much and I thought it was incredibly realistic. Little things like that. She loves Cash, but he doesn’t make or break her. It…

I’m so hoping that Gus’ comment about the inevitable drug war getting the attention of the DEA means that Hank (and Gomez!) are going to make an appearance soon. By the time Hank gets shot in BrBa, Gus is well established as a supporter of the DEA and other organizations - he’s got to be starting to make those…

32. Stephen Miller is 32 years old. How.

I wish someone had told me this a million years ago. My skin started clearing up the second I switched to using bar soap and kicked all my loofahs to the curb.

Dark Places was my favorite of the 3 books but the movie was largely forgettable, unfortunately. I agree, it could be good if HBO took it on.

This happened at an Apple Store recently, too. People just walked in, grabbed a bunch of stuff, and walked out. People were filming it on their phones but nobody did anything. 

ho ly shit. I mean, I knew she survived the bite, obviously, but as I was reading her account I had that sinking feeling in my gut of “is she going to make it?!!??” What an amazing person!!

I saw that picture on IG this morning and just stared at it for a long time. I can’t believe how young she looks!! At first I thought it was a teenage picture of Brittany Snow.

I drive by this park fairly often, and it is so jarring that the slide is still standing given its terrible history. I’m so glad it’s finally going to be torn down. You can’t understand how massive it is until you see it.

to highlight certain areas lost in the foundation.

Seriously. My hometown is one of the lucky ones that saw its downtown thrive as everything in the mall closed. I think the last store open was Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory. A town 40 miles away built not one, but TWO malls, which have since closed, but its beautiful downtown/Main Street is still struggling to…

Kiehl’s Midnight Recovery is the best. After I’d been using it for about a week, one morning I woke up and looked in the mirror and just...kept looking. My skin was all the good things I’d never known it was capable of!

At 32 and a half years of age, I have started sleeping sans underwear (but in my loose comfy Gap sleeping shorts) for the first time in my life. I still can’t quite sleep or nap totally naked and feel like I need something ‘round my nethers just so I can feel totally relaxed, but it’s a step! I’ve also started going…

You’re right, I am most definitely crying :’(
