sit in your shiatsu massage chair reading food blogs and drinking cold brew
have a kitchen dance party
make jam at midnight, when it’s finally cooled down outside
spend the day napping and jerking off
read a good book straight through
try a new recipe
flirt with the fed ex man like you’re in a harlequin
take a week off from facebook
wash your sheets and line dry them
listen to whatever you want, all day long
watch gilmore girls for hours, because you can
make your favorite dish. share it with yourself.
try on the clothes that make you feel pretty. prance accordingly.
wear your swim cover up as a nightgown
indulge your organizing neuroses
take a long shower
make your hair do funny things
write
remember that many people enjoy your company. being with yourself is no punishment.
