goes to bed sober:
*barely uses my Waterpik*
*all whiny and shit*
“Myaaaahhh toooooo tiiiiiiired.”
*pets cat and goes to sleep*
vs.
(before i) go to bed drunk:
*12 step Korean skincare regimen, hot shower and exfoliation, cleans teeth better than at the dentist, puts all laundry away, finishes planting spring bulbs, correctly labels breaker switches, dusts the baseboards, files taxes, discovers cold fusion, builds a rocket ship and flies it to Mars and back, flees to Pennsylvania, assumes a new identity, takes over a bar, fundraises for the local women’s volleyball team to attend regional finals, goes back home, pets cat and goes to sleep*
Hey,
nobody’s perfect, though.
I did fall asleep listening to the same Radiohead song on repeat 🥴😂
