Why is everyone trying to tell me that when you get older it gets better?

There Has Ceased to Be a Difference Between My Awake Clothes and My Asleep Clothes

Something that's happened recently is that I don't beat myself up about stuff.

..I find it incredible impossible not to cry when I hear Stevie Nicks's "Landslide," especially the lyric: "I've been afraid of changing, because I've built my life around you." I think a good test to see if a human is actually a robot/android/cylon is to have them listen to this song lyric and study their reaction. If they don't cry, you should stab them through the heart. You will find a fusebox.

I'd rather be like Odysseus than someone who was handed everything.

Hey, a disclaimer about me: I’m rude.

I do not think stress is a legitimate topic of conversation, in public anyway. No one ever wants to hear how stressed out anyone else is, because most of the time everyone is stressed out. Going on and on in detail about how stressed out I am isn’t conversation. It’ll never lead anywhere. No one is going to say, “Wow, Mindy, you really have it especially bad. I have heard some stories of stress, but this just takes the cake.
