tolkien’s/peter jackson’s elves are literally the most extra creatures ever. galadriel gets in a swan boat just for the aesthetic. arwen has at least three beds for dramatically moping. the elves have a whole land of immortality where they go when they just can’t even deal anymore. don’t even get me started on thranduil.

Most of the sentences you make will need to be killed. The rest will need to be fixed. This will be true for a long time. The hard part now is deciding which to kill and which to fix and how to fix them. This will get much, much easier, but the decision making will never end.

Today was a bit rough around the edges. I felt emotional and not great about myself (hey, it happens). Then I received this INCREDIBLE care package from my dear friend Alyssa, sent all the way from Virginia! I still haven't cleaned all the tear-salt off my glasses. I'm so lucky to have Alyssa, and all my other wonderful, loving friends. Thank you. Honestly don't know where or what I'd be without you.
