incoherent quotes, unknown phone numbers, market lists, coffee orders, notes just titled โcheetosโ and โcurtains,โ draft letters to former bosses. itโs the little things!
When I was a teen, I used to keep a quotes journal that I would just write out quotes I liked from books I had read. Thinking I may need to bring this back. But for know have been doing this in the notes app.
whenever i'm learning abt something fun (art project, diy house stuff, recipes) i write a note explaining it to myself & it's like i have a magical recipe book full of all of the things ive learned to do - most recently, lots of sewing tips & tricks ๐
best friend and i were yapping about how important it is to actually be celibate for a while and maybe even not date for a bit when you're single instead of hooking up until you find a partner. it sucks for a little bit and you are really forced to confront your demons and then one day you forget about it. whatever floats your boat but i think it's probably good for the soul to be celibate here and there and focus on other shit. i'll go like a whole year like it's nobody's business
seems like up till maybe 50 years ago if you knew the right guy with a printing press you could get some wild credit for being the first person to have a mostly normal thought. no matter how poorly you articulated it! sometimes it feels like the only sane thing to do is create your own critical framework....you are no less powerful than These Guys. they just made some of this stuff up
