You really get to feel every feeling possible for a human to feel with this activity- Suspense, excitement, regret (from being a shopaholic), impatience, frustration (when the package suddenly stops tracking) and MORE! Every morning you get to wake up & check the tracker, offering a similar feeling to waiting to get a text from a crush- except it's a message from USPS giving you an update on your package. Wow. There's so many emotions, so many feelings. Then you get to wait for the USPS truck, looking out the window at all the cars rushing by wondering, "Is my package in that vehicle?". I live SO close to my post office so I am in suspense all day as there's hundreds of USPS trucks that drive by & it's such a rush! Then you get to do it all over again when you order something else. I'm currently tracking only one thing (trying to be good this month).

This is self-explanatory i think. I need to be on my computer or phone the second it gets dark out so that i dont think about how im going to die one day, so i usually do online shopping. But of course i cannot buy the things i want due to i’d lose everything in terms of my money, and also i am obsessed with designer clothing so i really cannot be behaving in that way. But i suspend my belief and open 100+ tabs of clothing/shoes/accessories that i like from TheRealReal, cos, ebay, to name a few and then just as i’m finally starting to get sleepy, i “apple Q” thousands of dollars away without ever adding anything to a cart so that i can start over the next day. It is like “50 first dates” but with retail therapy. Does this make sense?

So, you got things to do. Items to pick up. Ingredients to buy. Packages to drop off. Sometimes this feels like a chore. A burden. Maybe you don’t have enough time. And you succumb to the sirens of Bezos and Fresh Direct and Door Dash to make it easier. But. But, it’s nice to *choose* to make it not a chore. To take your time and BOP AROUND. To soften up those stiff tote bags. To see and walk and banter (or flirt!) with fellow thems behind the counter, on the street or in the store. To listen to music or listen to the world as it moves around you. Errands aren't something to get through. There's nothing waiting for you on the other side of errands. Errands are life. You're doing it, you're living. Enjoy them!

Ever since I quit nicotine I don't deprive myself of a cigarette when I feel like I really need it. So it hits different, because when my emotional state is low all it takes is a cig break to feel like I'm confronting whatever it is that's weighing me down. This system is fool-proof. Sometimes I think I'm low enough for a cigarette then decide I'm not quite sad enough. So when I do smoke it's because I'm crying & absolutely losing it. Because my smoke breaks are spontaneous, I can't quite plan for them, leading to unfinished packs & a plethora of lighters. Funny enough, each lighter coincides with whatever was making me feel awful that day making it a journal of sorts for my feelings. My fav is the "take me with you" lighter because well.. I really related to that when I bought it. There's also something really protagonist-y about walking into a gas station, eyes puffy & tears streaming down your face & asking for a pack of camel menthols ... oh & a swag lighter.

When I find one I immediately put it into a small mason jar where I also keep clumps of her fur that fall off when she scratches herself & whatever else I find that once belonged to her. When the day comes & we can clone cats, I will be so thankful for this collection because I truly can't live without my kitty.

I found this at a garage sale for twenty-five cents! Worth every penny. I can play Sudoku all the time & with a groovy orange stylus. You can choose different levels of difficulty & the sound effects are next level. It also just looks so cool? Only bad thing is it's hard to play it outside because of the screen.
