Perfect storm
A forum post, a blog post recommended by one friend for another, a message, a documentary on Ansel Adams, going back to work tomorrow- all make me think “What am I doing? Why am I doing this?”.

The gift today was getting stuff done- even when I didn’t want to, after a bag of M and Ms and tears. While I know I’m really not a responsible adult- I refuse to feel guilty for something that is not my responsibility
