After having sent around 20 postcards to strangers on @postcrossing.com (& other), I am surprised that many people don't like self-made personalized cards and prefer printed ones. I can never understand this! In what world is a mass-produced postcard more liked than a personalized card?

Sometimes I create calendar events for trivial reminder tasks for myself (like cooking, or watering the plants). At this point, I'm basically Google's unpaid data entry clerk. "Here's my life data, no need to spy!"

While waiting for my model to finish training, I watched inside out 2, and decided to paint my pot with joy... The idea of anxiety taking over your body and changing your sense of "self" from "I'm a good person" to "I'm not good enough", hit really close to home.
