i love taking myself out for dinner. im an extrovert, so i truly love spending time with people, but if i don’t take intentional time with myself i’ll lose track of my own thoughts and creativity. at least once a month i schedule a dinner with just me. i usually bring a book, could be a novel or an art book. i always have my journal on me, so i take the time to reflect on the last month of life. i get to just have a conversation with my own thoughts. i always finish my meal inspired and ready to move forward.

I love going out to eat by myself. Especially when it feels like an occassion vs. shoveling some fast casual down during lunch hours. Brunch, candle lit dinners, etc.

take yourself out to a nice dinner, get a good cocktail, bring a nice book, and enjoy the vibes - people watch like crazy also

im too busy to be in a relationship right now so i’ve been going on solo dates and i love it soo much i just read and enjoy a drink & great meal 😌 it’s a splurge but worth it!!! the book i’m reading is a decolonial feminism and this month i went to a restaurant that only serves sustainable seafood (normally i don’t have fish bc of enviro impact so this was cool! sadly tho they did not give me a paper straw option)

started rebuilding my cd collection from scratch last year and i love getting to hold my favorite albums in my hands. reading the lyrics from the fold feels like reading the writer’s journal. in a time when everything feels disposable, it’s nice to feel like the songs that shape you get a place in your home too.

one of my favorite hobbies is listening to music and writing reviews in my journal. this year i’m going through rolling stones top 500 songs of all time and keeping a playlist of the ones i feel are truly five stars. my ranking system is fully instinctive. there‘s some weight to it, but it’s mostly based on feeling.

my birthday month!! the april showers make for amazing naps, it finally gets warmer but not too warm. the flowers are blooming! tulips, daffodils, azaleas, i even love the dandelions. everyone comes out of hibernation and has a new lust for life after being cooped up in the house all winter. all the great fruits start making a comeback: strawberries, mango, oranges. AND THE CLOTHES!! warm enough for short sleeves but you can still layer a cute jacket. i also feel like that’s when new music releases start back up. all around, just a fantastic time.
