Treat yourself!! Only when you deserve it though. This is a caution against undeserved indulgence!!! I took myself out for cocktails and oysters, i had the time of my life. But I got much too involved with miss bloody mary and grossly overtipped by accident. I then suffered the worst food poisoning i have ever had (and will have). Leaving me a staggering husk of a human, both physically and financially drained to the dregs. I think I was punished by god #workhardplayhard #makesureyouworkhard

In the past couple of days I got my brows done, hair trimmed, took a real bath, and had my (not) yearly dental cleaning. Weirdly I didnāt even mean to schedule them all at the same week, I guess thatās just been my mood.
Iāve never been a big āself careā girl. Not into face masks and never get pedicures or whatever. But I think I was wrong for that!
Yeah itās dumb and barely noticable. But the RITUAL, the psychological ripple effect of taking care of yourself with no payout beyond your own indulgence. Maybe you feel more special when you treat yourself with the care you would treat something special.

Call it a self-care tax.
This is not financial advice.

-Day pass at da sauna. This is my big āu deserve a breakā ticket item as itās expensive. but going back and forth from cold plunge < > sauna fixes me for at least a few days.
-Pastry, specifically at Librae or Radio while in nyc. Anything flaky, really. Iām a raging slut for anything croissant-like or forged from puff pastry.
-Bad tv... speaks for itselfā¦ its like a punishment and a reward rolled into oneā¦..
-Books and records I guess. Any physical media shopped-for in person since itās kinda the experience itself thatās the ātreat yourselfā rather than just the item
-Taco Bell. Similar to bad tv, this one is something that feels somewhat self destructive so I only let myself have it if Iām already depressed. Like if I already feel bad how much worse could Taco Bell make it? Oh Iāll shit my pants? Ok well maybe then Iāll have something *real* to worry about instead of existentialism or metacognition about the existentialism or whatever useless grievance has me in the doldrums that day.
