It’s those mornings I wake up with one sock missing, an aching back, and a fridge full of nothing that I tell myself “Look woman, wake up and accomplish one thing, just one. You’ll be aight.”

The past two days I spent most of my time contemplating how much work I needed to get done. I ended up doing none of it. I busied myself with trivial things, had an emotional breakdown I attributed to being on my period, then had a one hour break from reality. I watched Pretty Little Liars. Yes, at 24 I watch stuff for teeny-boppers. It was a Halloween episode. Kinda creepy, but entertaining. Earlier in the day I read various things and talked to a few friends. Today, however, is a new day. Instead of throwing a pity party, I’m gonna push on. Gonna get my eggy on like Gaston this gloomy AM! I set some goals for the week and by golly I’m going to get my butt in gear. Slap on a freakin’ Johnson and Johnson heat strip and get to work!
