We give Goose treats when we trim his nails cause he's such a wiggler about it. But now he thinks he should get treats when I cut my nails.

May books. Spent a lot of time reading with the sleep issues and bereavement leave. DCC and Murderbot are still great.

Another Rulette, with Josh, Anna, and Demi? Oh hell yes.

I've loved music nearly as long as I can remember. My parents weren't really music people though. Growing up, my mom kept the radio on the oldies station (50s and 60s). She never seemed that aware of more modern music (80s and beyond). When I was in college, we were in the car and she lightly sang along to the Eddie Grant song "Electric Avenue" that was on the radio. I was surprised she even knew the song so it stuck with me from then on. After finding out she passed away, the first song that played on the radio was "Electric Avenue".

This little guy is so cute when he's asleep I can't take it.

when a song has a callback to earlier songs on the same album or even songs from a previous album. that’s the good shit right there

Big reading month since I had some plane time to get in a bunch of extra reading. I'm almost done with Dungeon Crawler Carl book 7. I enjoyed all of these books. Love By The Book was fantastic and probably one of my favorites this year. And Yesteryear was wild and great as well.

One of my cats decided I should wake up before 7. Sadly my brain has accepted that and now I wake up before 7 without the cats help. Thanks brain.

Finished Yesteryear, I usually avoid books about influencer culture and social media but I really enjoyed it and it surpassed my expectations. Parts of it felt like it could have been a Serena Joy-Fred origin story.

can everyone do me a favor and tell me your favorite thing to put on toast in the tags

[boltlightning]

i love this post so much. all the replies are like

"i'm so basic.....i just like a lot of butter or jam :(" (as though those are not god's best and most beloved condiments and his greatest gifts to mankind)

"FUCK health guidelines FUCK my cholesterol and most importantly FUCK diet culture i'll put a dumpster full of butter on my toast and not even GOD will stop me" (no notes. god would encourage this)

doxxing one's self by mention of polarizing regional delicacies (i am so curious about vegemite i must admit)

"does a grilled cheese count as toast?" (not for the purposes of this post)

"i don't like toast please don't kill me" (i appreciate the honesty but i fear this post is not for you)

people who put full ass meals on toast (based)

people who do not but eat toast as a full meal (based)

melty peanut butter (absolutely based)

"it's a guilty pleasure but...nutella 😳" (relieve yourself of fear and enjoy your dessert toast)

special shoutout to the pots-havers adding extra salt. also the one person who mentioned kaya. i see you and am in agreement

My resolution last year was to do one thing before bed that would make my morning feel easier, and that’s become a daily habit that I’m carrying into this new year.

Some nights even filling up the kettle and setting an empty mug out for my morning tea felt hard. But I was always thankful for it in the morning.

Other nights, one thing would lead to another, and I’d wake up in a clean house with everything ready to go.

And, on a rare few nights, the one thing that I could do to make my morning easier was going straight to bed and allowing myself to rest.

What stayed the same each day is that I would take a moment to think of what I could do for my future self and do it, even after a hard day. And I would wake up knowing that I had done my best and any effort—no matter how small—was a kindness to myself.

I’ve been doing a lot of “a treat for future me” moments lately.

[heatherwitch]

That’s a great way to look at it, and I love this artist! (Anna-Laura: instagram / website)

[ponyinarope]

Been thinking about this a lot since it first popped on my dash. I may start leaving little notes for future me.

[inthetags]

reblog and put in the tags what your favorite song is that is more than 5 minutes long

the tragedy of tumblr is you will inevitably meet people who you should be having a sleepover with. you should be rolling around on their floor and rummaging through their fridge and watching shitty movies with. you should be shopping with should be going out to a cafe with should be wandering through the aquarium with. people who you should be experiencing quotidian joys with... and you cannot! because they live one million miles away

no one talks about how straight up painful it is to be the bigger person when deep in your soul you just want to be a huge bitch about it
