I said on 03/30/22 :
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 finally get to be fat. and I was right, it’s the best. I have an excuse for all the fruit(?) milk(?) avocado(?) I’m consuming. So lame
Added effect: calling my maternity clothes my “fat clothes”
Christopher says "ALL YOUR CLOTHES SMELL LIKE MILDEW" but I say no they don't, they smell normal. so either: 1. I'm right or 2. mildew is normal to me, and I've grown to like/accept it. come get me, boys
(jk I’m married)
A hack: when you’re hanging out with people who aren’t fun, interesting, or that give you a headache, think “this is the last time I’ll see him/her/them ever again.”
I hung out with people today that’ll never come over to my house again and I’ll never see them again. It was tough but coulda been worse
Benefits of being paralyzed, cont’d:
In bed when my hands are cold, I can lay them on my warm belly until they’re back to normal. and I can’t feel the cold discomfort! Welcome, winter
I love having my own sink because I can leave all my eyebrow hairs in there with no one to fuss about it
I woke up from sleep with a full bladder sensation and it’s just about the most exciting thing that has happened in 17 years. A full bladder sensation! My body is still waaaaakin’ up
It drives Christopher crazy but sometimes (most times) at night when it’s dark outside, I don’t turn on the bathroom lights to pee and brush my teeth. I wanna see if I can be blind and what it’s like. He says “you’re gonna run into things and break something” but I do it every night? So I’m really good at it?
I just get so excited when I meet beautiful women. One checked me in at the doctor today. When she asked me my date of birth I answered with “you’re beautiful.” Jarring, for us both. I can’t help myself
I drink so much matcha tea these days and HAHA so much I have whole green mush clumps in my teeth, and today on my chin? Maybe I’m not blending it enough? Christopher makes fun. help me
When I drink caffeine (every day now! I make matcha!) I get this surge of energy and I just love people and things so MUCH.
similar to when I drink alcohol, but that’s rarely and this is every afternoon.
Today I drank matcha then came speeding into our office and Christopher said “are you having a surge, Kristin?” HAHA I was, but I gave him a kiss and Achilles 100 instead of answering
changes in my mindset
going to the bathroom (pee) is a fun mystery because I get to check in on how I'm doing, how I'm drinking.
brushing my teeth is a fun chore because I got to see which foods got stuck.
Then taking a shower is fun because I see what comes off.
Hygiene is so fun
Christopher went out of town without me for the weekend and the first thing I did was run Vaseline alllll over my face. I’m SHINING.
I’m riding a marathon today, and I thought to put deodorant under my boobs. It’s genius, it worked. Does anyone else know about this?
I just submitted the final manuscript for my 4th book and it’s just VERY EXCITING. I kinda thought I’d never be done with it (good grief)
on September 29th, 2008 I sent myself an email via futureme.org (send yourself emails in the future) that says "happy 32nd birthday!" hahahahahahahahahahahahha. such a fun surprise. to me, from me. My 18 year old self was so cute
Achilles has a cast on her leg (her broken foot bad & my broken heart) that smells exactly like matcha tea. little blessings
We moved 50 minutes away from where I went to high school/had my accident/everyone knew me, but I’m still meeting people in this neighborhood who heard about my accident 17 years ago. I can’t outrun my tragedy
nor do I want to! Buy my book
