Friday's Thoughts

Hiiiii friends. I'm feeling a lot of, well, feelings today. Blame it on PMS, stress, missin my mama, whatever. I don't know what's going on with me. Actually. I do. My uterus is getting mad that I'm not pregnant. No fair. I don't give it a baby, so it makes me suffer with cramps and emotions. Last night, I cried over a damn quote I saw someone post on Instagram.

Perks of being a girl, right?

Isn't that weird how biology works? Like my body wants a baby in it. I don't, but it does.

Speaking of biology and things being natural and what not, I've been trying to live a more natural life. I'm not sure if that's because I live in Austin and all-natural products are readily available or if I've just read too much about natural living on the ole internet or WHAT. But something has sparked a fire in me. I've started with my diet and my skin care regime. For example, I juice a lot more so I can get lots of vitamins and nutrients. I haven't actually noticed a difference in the way I feel, but I swear it's working. And I've been using more natural products on my face, like coconut oil for moisurization. Again... don't see a huge difference, but it's gotta be better than using something that has benzoyl peroxide in it. I guess? Whatever helps me sleep at night.

Moving on to more random thoughts... I sent a rant email to my apartment complex last night about how all of the parking spots close to my building are always crowded, making me park far as shit away. Mostly I'm just annoyed by it, but I also don't particularly love walking alone in the dark of the night. So I mentioned that my safety migggght be compromised due to this inconvenience and they overreacted and offered for me to break my lease at no charge haha. Basically, telling me to move. Crazies.

I'm missin my parents a lot this week. It's really starting to hit me that they don't live within reasonable driving distance anymore. They finally started building their house in Nashville. It no longer feels like I just haven't been home in a while. They left and they're not coming back. Things are gettin real. There are some weekends where I really just want to drive home and hang out with my mom. Lay on her shoulder and share a glass of wine as we talk about how much I should be putting in my 401k. I just sort of feel alone without them. I talk to my mom every day, but it's not the same.

Poor Graham. All of these emotions are probably making him want to take a longggg vacation away from me. I teared up last night because he wouldn't change the channel off of hockey. Lordy.

Anywho, that's all I got for ya today. Hope you all have a super fun weekend that doesn't involve a shit ton of hormones!
