"last year i was at my favorite bookstore. I went there because i was feeling sort of fragile and overwhelmed and one of the things that usually makes me feel better is a bookstore. I was looking through the cards, the ones that have quotes on the front and they're all big, inspirational "seize the day" type quotes from people like Eleanor Roosevelt. If you read them on a good day, you're like " I will Eleanor Roosevelt. I will change the world one tiny moment at a time." But on kind of a cranky, bad day, you read them and you think, "Well, that's why you people are famous because you do wonderful inspirational things and all I do is try to get through the day without crying or losing my mind"
THIS IS MY LIFE EXACTLY.

like for real, let's just get best friend necklaces and make up a hand shake already.
