When was the last time you did something for the first time?
I'll go first.

y'all, I've sat down 5 times this week to write this newsletter.
And here I am, the final hour of the final day of this week, trying again... nothing like coming up on a deadline to get something done.

Hi there,
Is it just me, or has self help become unbearably boring?

Idk about you, but I have no idea what day it is. Ain't that the way it always goes on the last week of the year? I take it as a sign that I'm right on track.

Don't google snails... I know I didn't :)

How are your holidays ramping up?
Personally, I've been crying for two days, ever since my mom decided to rent us a car from the airport instead of coming to get us tomorrow.

For the past 60 days, Ruby and I have made 100 posts on instagram... each. It's a challenge created by Simone Seol called the Garbage Post Challenge.
