♡ someone was wearing baccarat rouge 540 in front of me during the opening keynote at my work conference, so i listened to how Company wants to maximize profit and lower cost to the fragrant notes of saffron, amber, and cedar

♡ in Moonstruck (1987) starring cher and nic cage, loretta (cher’s character) is sending off johnny cammareri to sicily at jfk, and there’s this old witchy looking woman who’s like “I put a curse on that plane!” because her sister slept with her man and she’s on that plane, and she’s going on for a while in this scene, and after all that, loretta (cher’s character), without a beat, says “I don’t believe in curses” and the woman, after, let’s say, a quarter of a beat, says “Ehe, neither do I.” and they both go back to minding their own business. that was such a rose (olympia dukakis’ character, loretta’s mom) move because they both know themselves. anyway, i would love some of that

♡ no one knows what they’re doing. everyone can only help others or me as much as they can help themselves or i can help myself, or they allow themselves to be helped by each other, or i allow myself to be helped by them

♡ i love my mom.

♡ in the same way a blank paper is really scary, so is every conscious moment of knowing that i have the power to create

♡ bugs are still so scary and cool and scary cool. there are gonna be so many in april and may.

♡ lifting, tennis, swimming, running, basketball, volleyball, an opportunity to go on a walk, they’re all a gift. being able to squat without my heels lifting off the ground and breathing into the insane tightness in my tibialis anterior and being able to wiggle my toes nonetheless- is a gift

♡ rust is fun. i still don’t know why system programming languages feel more intuitive to learn, but i think that’s fine. i’m so happy i can learn.
