I'm not gonna lie. I'm just not feeling it. I'm not in the mood. My butt hurts, I'm tired, and my fingers have become juicy sausages. Tomorrow I have a big pre-natal appointment and all I want is pizza. But I'm trying to be a responsible adult. I have already taken two naps today and am weighing the pros and cons of a shower.
I have so many things I want to share with you, joke about, gossip about, but I am also hungry and I just want to lay in my own filth and have conversations in my head that I will never have out loud with an actual human I am sure. You know those days? When you're like, "Fuck adulting. I want to eat take out in my undies, in solitude, watch whatever I want on t.v. with zero judgments, and take a third nap which is actually considered going to sleep." That's totally normal, right?
I have been dancing at my own pity party lately, feeling lonely as I close certain chapters of my life. Some chapters were that of friends, others work, and finally finishing the chapter on my girl group. Or maybe they weren't chapters. Perhaps more so a series of books in my life. And the only way I can start my new book is to close out the rest, put them on the shelf, and start fresh at page one. I am learning that these endings don't have to be sad...they don't even have to be endings. It's really just a continuation. Or maybe a transition. The books are still up there on the old shelf...some more tattered and weathered than others. It's my library of lessons, memories, friends and foes, and tales that were told. There is a huge bookshelf to be stocked and I have so many stories yet to fill the pages.
Yeah. Okay, books, chapters, pages, we get it, girl. Get to the point.
My point? I don't really have one. I'm rambling off some full on stream of consciousness ish right here. I'm figuring shit out, man! Isn't that the point?
While I think real deep about life, motherhood, love, and meaning...I have compiled some of my favorite videos to make your Friday just a little brighter. So, if you happen to be down in the dumps, going through your own existential crisis, or just need to giggle and/or pull the stick out of your ass, this post is for you. And if you just can't fight the funk and you are deep in your struggle, just remember, tomorrow is another day.
