Some of this is life that feels like work and a lot of this is work that feels like life and I’m never really sure which of it is ever even in balance anyway. Sometimes I think time was invented so we don’t explode from it all happening at once.

And thinkpunkgirl? This is the DIY. This is where I crank it up and (un)build it from.
