My therapist, who is in her late 20s and is therefore no more than five years older than me, said āgood girlā to me during our session yesterday, because I am better able to manage my anxiety.
I had no idea how to react, and instead of that causing me anxiety and confusion, I just laugh about how unexpected that was. My girlfriend also got a kick out of it lol.
So silly. Life is so unpredictable and awesome in that way.

I LOVE when people meet me and I tell them Iām pretty fluid with my gender and they donāt automatically just use she/her. it makes me feel seen as who I am and not as what Iām perceived as. makes me feel actually cared for. I especially love when they switch it up occasionally, like today they say they and the next they say heā¦ect. God I love it all!!

I am short and generally bubbly, so people always assume that I am younger than my actual age (which is wild to me). One time a few years ago, someone came to my door and asked me if my parents were homeā¦my tattoos were highly visibleā¦ I said no and wasnāt lying š¤·āāļø
When my son was first born, I had to bring something to my husbandās work, and the dad of a client asked who the teenage mother was (It was me, I was 31 lol).
Personality things, I donāt know. Iāll have to ask some people and get back to you!

In pre-21st century movies and media, we always see couples that go to bed, independently read their books, and once sleepy, clap off the lights and peacefully retire to sleep. Maybe thereās a reason this trope is so common! Maybe couples who read together, sleep together!!
Reading before bed regulates my brain and body in ways I did not know were possible. Screens are bad for you, specifically and especially before bedtimeā¦ who knew! And with a good nights sleep I have so much energy to do things, including but not limited to more reading.

Collecting a stack of printed takeout menus from local restaurants is equivalent to finding community in your town/city. I love to get off my phone and flip through a printed menu when deciding what to order for dinner, appreciating the graphic design choices and the hometown staples on each menu.
And they are only wasteful if you waste them! What great material for emergency note-taking, for adorning your fridge, for COLLAGING! Oh my goodness what great and meaningful content organically exists in a printed takeout menu from your favorite local spot.

Mr. Cassavetes is the man who has made me cry the most, isnāt that saying something!
Starting ten minutes into the 2.5 hour-long film, I felt my heart slowly sink into my stomach, and by the end I was claustrophobic with such feelings of hopelessness, confusion, and the sting of reality. I cried myself to sleep, I didnāt know what else to do with myself!
A WOMAN UNDER THE INFLUENCE is worth a watch for all these reasons, and for Gena Rowlandās unmatched and masterful performance, and for these reasons is a movie I must never watch again. Brava!
