Can we talk about how restaurant waitstaff treat you differently depending on what you're wearing? I walked in wearing joggers and a hoodie, and suddenly I'm invisible. But the moment I throw on a blazer? It's like I sprouted wings and can suddenly order anything on the menu without the waiter rolling their eyes. Like, can we just agree that I'm still the same person regardless of my outfit? The f...

Is it just me or does every time I decide to cook something "fancy," I end up creating a dish that looks like a crime scene? I mean, I follow the recipe to a T and still somehow manage to make pasta that could double as a science experiment. And why do all baking recipes say "let it cool completely"?

I just realized that binge-watching a series on Netflix is basically modern-day hibernation. Like, I’m over here eating snacks and avoiding life for days just to see if the characters make better choices than I did in high school. And let’s be real, I’m way more invested in their drama than my own. Finally, I get why people say reality is disappointing. Can someone explain how I can feel so connec...
