I feel seen.

Am I perfect? No.

But do I try my best to use up my craft supplies before buying more?

Also no.

Today's wisdom.

#cats #happiness #relationships #relationshipadvise

A green cat-themed background with the text, "If you're not happy single, you won't be happy married. Happiness comes from cats, not relationships."

A woman drinking a cocktail while lounging on the couch with a book next to her. The caption reads, "'You're looking happier.'

Thanks. I traded the self-help books in for smut."

I'm down with this. I need an excuse to buy new formal clothes since the weight loss.

A post by @thisone0verhere that says, "Casual Fridays are out, formal Fridays are in. We're wearing our best ball gowns and long tailed tuxes. We're calling for carriages and being announced every time we enter a room. We're criticizing the champagne and quietly plotting the downfall of rival families, and obviously we're dying to know who that masked man across the ballroom is, because that's just what we do on Fridays now."

I said it. Fight me.

It needs to do a better job.

If you have never had a binder of ripped car CDs are you even a fully developed person? I mean, how do you function? Playlists are so banal.

#cd #music #carstereo #cdplayer #cdbinder #genx #genxlife

A post by @thisobe0verhere: Today, somebody was like 'why does your whole generation have trust issues?' I will tell you why. It's because we had to buy all of our favorite music on tape first, and then we had to buy it all over again on CDs, and then we had to buy it all over again to load our mp3 players, and now everyone just gets access to everything ever recorded for like basically nothing, and that's GREAT but now I have to make small talk with people I've just met instead of just handing them my binder of car CDs like 'here is my whole personality.'

A dog and his BFF. The happiest picture you'll see all day. You're welcome.

This guy always has the best ideas!

A post by @thisone0verhere that says, "A scholastic book fair but a party for adults where we have a few drinks and relive our youth by buying books and posters and all the awesome school supplies, but when the night's over we all leave our purchases behind and they get sent to kids who need them."

Okay, these look and sound delicious. Who has a tried and true recipe?

I judged an art show this morning so this hits different today.

#art #artclass #artclasses #arteducation

@thisone0verhere posted, "Art classes should never stop being a thing. Like if right after our lunch breaks we all got to go down to the basement for an hour, throw on a smock, and make collage out of old magazines while somebody's eccentric, slightly witchy aunt tells us how great we're doing, I feel like we'd all be in a better place."

Ohhhhhhh... I didn't get that part. Silly me. Let me go check it out again...

15 years ago, I slept on the floor in a place I rented with a roommate. Now, I own my own home. It's modest, but it's mine. The kitchen is remodeled, the furnace is new, and I have the walls painted all the crazy colors I want. I am grateful.

#home #grateful #gratitude #startingover #progress

Two pictures. The one on the left shows a bare bones bedroom with a mattress on the floor. The one on the right shows the mattress replaced with a bed. The caption says, "Progress is the best feeling in the world.

@NickFotarin comments, 'I love posts like this. It shows realistic and relatable growth, which often isn't shown on social media.'"

The cutest Halloween decorations ever! A coworker found them at the dollar store and brought them into work.

Felt decorations for Halloween. There is a green witch in a black dress and hat, a white mummy, and a purple vampire with a gray jacket and black cape.

Forgotten. Yep. That's us.

"GenX in a nutshell: We're 45-60, still don't trust authority, never will ask for help, & still know every word to a song we haven't heard since 1987. We have bad backs, good instincts, & zero tolerance for BS..."

For the love of god, just print it in black!
