The most exciting things in my life right now are
moving houses in less than a month
submitted manuscript for book #4
marathon season is coming up and I’m doing 2, maybe 3 this year
how soapy my hands get when I wash them for at least 20 seconds and how good that feels. and it’s free
Where some other(/the average?) couple might take a shower and put on some kind of sexy or appealing lingerie for Thor spouse at bedtime, I take a shower and rub Vaseline on my whole face. My entire face, 3 layers, so it doesn’t soak in until long after we’re asleep. It’s my favorite part of the day don’t expect me to give that up
I had a nightmare that Christopher was yelling and throwing shoes at me, so my heart rate was in the fat burn zone.
- I have a large pile of (9 pairs of) shoes in the middle of our bedroom floor that I'm probably feeling guilty about not throwing away. procrastination**
- but I got to the fat burn zone so can we do this again
Some girls have “period underwear,” but I have “period pajamas.” These are my pajamas that are so uglybutcomfy that it doesn’t matter Christopher isn’t attracted to me because I’m on my period anyway. so I can be comfy and ugly. I’m gamin the system over here
Christopher says he can smell that I’ve been eating Doritos (“from across the room,” but I’m not believin that) He says the same thing about my Oreos but I put them in the FREEZER now so there’s no stopping me
I push on Christopher to wake him up when he snores at night, but then I lay there petrified that I’ve woken him up. Then I’m awake because I’m going through all these emotions, and here I am typing a blog post under my covers at 3am
(This may not sound significant, but it is because I wear a lotta t shirts)
I officially buy one size up from the size I wear because I care more about being comfy than looking just right. Subconsciously I did it, consciously I’m applauding myself
One of my favorite parts of living with Christopher is how he doesn’t fuss at me for how long my shower are (avg. 16 minutes). It’s like I wash every strand of hair separately
I have a strong** aversion to taking medication pills, but I’ll take 25 vitamins every morning gladly. I’m only taking 5 now, though, and Achilles is taking 2. Every time I enter the bathroom I want to swallow a vitamin
My favorite part of the day is nighttime when I can put on my pajamas and Vaseline alllll over my face. like a slime princess, all over. Try it!!
The day after* a long bike ride is the best because I can justify wearing a less cute and more comfy tshirt, sleeping past 8am, and watching tv during the day (but I don’t do this one because what even would I watch). 13.4 miles yesterday! I’m chasing the body pains
Some girls have “period underwear,” but I have Period Pajamas (my ugliest but also most comfortable pajamas) because now that I’m married it’s a waste to look cute when I’m on my period. AMIRIGHT
So Christopher knows my cycle just judging on if I wear the navy grandma shirt or not
I don’t get why women are so sensitive about being called “fat” when they’re pregnant???? I can’t wait to be fat, and not just because it’ll mean I’m pregnant. I just can’t wait to be fat
(sometimes food just SITS THERE, on my belly. I need an excuse)
I got mud on the (white cover over the) white seat of my handcycle, exactly where my butt sits. Christopher keeps saying it’s poop but it’s NOT POOP but hahaha I can’t blame him. How did the mud get there? (it’s not poop)
I clock at least 4 hours par day on Edinburgh zoo’s live penguin cam these days. I’m writing a book still so when i get stuck, i watch them on my other monitor until i think of a way forward. It’s very productive. They’re so silly
Christopher got a haircut that made me embarrassed to be wearing a T shirt that I bought in the 8th grade to dinner last night. sooo annoying. But I did still wear it and got no compliments. He got 2
Someone just told me that my wedding was more fun than their own wedding. ooooooooooooops i agree. photo as evidence
I bought this underwear for our wedding night @ honeymoon, but I COMPLETELY FORGOT and found them yesterday. Christopher said they would have “killed the mood” but what kind of mood are we even trying to set here? I think they’re perfect
