I was that kid who had notes to get out of gym...
I was doing some really non-strenuous walking around my office and thinking “Whyyyy is this making my legs hurt?” when it finally struck me that I’d gone for a run last night and maybe that was why I had this dull ache whenever I attempted to move.

this might have been a mistake

YOU GUYS.
Can I just say? That tumblr is seriously awesome sometimes and I am so excited to be a part of it? And that I do a dorky little bounce/handclap whenever someone replies or likes or messages me? And I don’t know what I would do without this?

DILEMMA
I am having a massive craving for chocolate and the only source in the house is chocolate-covered espresso beans. Do I:

OR
c) just eat them all! And then stay up all night obsessively organizing my pyjama drawer! Who gives a fuck about sleep!
