We’re a society obsessed with instantaneous classifications, but really relationships & love aren’t instantaneous and easily classified.

You start singing that dreadful Mariah Carey song as soon as the last turkey slice is cut and surprise surprise you actually own It’s A Wonderful Life.

Your GPS will become your best friend but even still you will inevitably find yourself wondering where you are 9 times out of 10.

I just hadn’t accepted that later would be so soon. It wasn’t ever meant to get this far.

4. I’m not nearly drunk enough for this.

A year ago I almost died. Not like the dramatic “almost died,” like 5 days in the hospital, call her parents-type almost died.

I hate writing about race. Whenever anyone asks me why I don’t dive head first into one of my most identifying features I wince and try to change the subject as fast as I can.

To keep the end goal in mind.

My advice about dating is simple – get up and go figure it out yourself. Date a butcher, a baker, or a candlestick maker.

1. Getting Fired

2. You think about that person when someone else hits on you.

I never wear pants in the office. I believe in a-line skirts and cardigans or Michelle Obama style dresses with flats or heels only.

Feel your feeling but don’t let your feeling control your reaction

Because of this, I fell a little harder.

Something about being outside, day drunk off mimosas, just having a blast summer block party style, makes it feel like the season has indeed arrived.

I’m glowing, because everything in my life is better than I could have ever imagined. I’m not living off of some list, I’m living off of my own dreams.

Whether you’re in a relationship or not you can’t deny that the undercover tango is the best way to stop over-thinking.

Have really aggressive opinions on when other people get married or start families.
