This sounds weird, but sometimes I forget to have fun.

I get so caught up in my work and “adulting,” weeks will pass and I will have barely spent any time outdoors with my friends doing absolutely nothing (the good kind of nothing). My closest friends know this about me, so they’re good about calling me out and pulling me out of my own self-imposed misery. But I need to remind myself to take having fun just as seriously as, well, actual serious stuff.

As Jack says in Stanley Kubrick’s movie, The Shining, “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy,” or in my case, all work and no fun makes evolving incredibly hard and I just end up crying myself to sleep at night. Lol. Ok. maybe not that dramatic. But yes. Kinda that dramatic.
