I’ve been trying to make more of an effort to enjoy my own company recently, so I went to a show by myself for the first time. It was such a fun night even with my only exchange being when someone asked if I was alright after getting kicked in the face 🫶🏻 Do more things by yourself! You are your very own oldest friend and it’s the relationship you have to cultivate the hardest!

Everytime I’ve gone to see Earl Sweatshirt, I’ve gone alone and those usually end up being my favorite live show experiences.

going to the hellp tonight at the fonda 😎 going solo to shows is daunting at first but always a great story to tell.
and it’s good practice to take yourself out on a date.

I started going to shows alone when I was in college for the same reason. Friends don’t always have the same taste as you, sometimes you‘re the only one in town, etc. I’m a pretty introverted person, but I’ve always been a believer in the idea that going alone and not having a good time is still better than not going and regretting it. It‘s more likely though that you’ll have an awesome time! The cool thing about going to a concert alone is that you have something in common with everyone in attendance (you‘re into the same artist and you’re in the same city). One of my closest friends is someone I met at a concert I went to alone. We just started talking in line before the doors opened. If you start feeling super awkward, just get there early and talk to people. If that’s not your vibe, just hang out and dance and sing to an artist you like. It’s very freeing and fun and low stakes bc you don’t know anyone there.

Currently crocheting a blanket and watching murder she wrote while my cup of tea cools and I can’t think of anybody I wouldn’t recommend this to

Depending on the vibe you’re after, The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame is a favorite, so cozy and entertaining, as well as The Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings books - very near and dear to my heart and so fun to read! Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier is one of the craziest, tensest, most atmospheric books I’ve read, ever. And The Master and Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov is an absolute trip, fantastical, satirical, and feverish to the extreme. All very different from the other but each so good in their own way!
