Hell is other people at breakfast.

This is the most majestic garment I have ever seen. Must resist impulse purchase...

Yes! My best friend just got married and did this—wine served before/during dinner, then a toonie bar for the rest of the night. Everyone was happy, her costs stayed manageable, and *bonus* it delayed the onset of peak drunkenness until after grandparents and other authority figures had called it a night.

Your husband is full of logic and I like it.

I'm also 25 and have that crushing feeling of failure. But I've spent the past few months at home looking for a job and I'm not enjoying it. Taking some time between making it rain resumes to do whatever awesome stuff I wanted (paint, learn more programming languages, volunteer, read all the books...) was great at…

You gotta pay the troll toll

Enjoy! I went to Paris alone last year (also a woman) and had an amazing time. You'll love it.

Agreed. It's great to be so passionate about your work that you'd gladly do it 24/7, but taking it to the point where you're repeatedly neglecting your physical/mental health is a bad plan.

Exactly.

I second the niceties. Start every interaction with a "bonjour madame/monsieur" and you're golden.

Bravo.

So adorable.

Maybe "seeing yourself objectively" at this point in time means accepting that you're dealing with an incredibly difficult illness (which makes you human, not a failure!) and trying to set some realistic expectations for yourself based on where you're at. At my most depressed my daily to-do list was to get out of bed…

I'm right there with you. I've tried to make them myself, pioneering Kiwi style, but it rarely goes well.

Me too.

Incredibly badass! Thank you!

That's a fantastic idea. Definitely making these for my little sister. Thank you!

This makes me so happy. Your boss is awesome.

Yes! Secret History references FTW!
