I've started using a productivity app that tracks my daily habits and goals, and it's been really helpful, except for one thing:

it still can't account for the 3 hours I spend each day mentally rehearsing conversations I'll never actually have.

I've started to think that my planner is just a book where I write down all the things I'm pretending to have control over

I matched with a guy on a dating app who claimed to be a 'dog dad'

But his photos were all of him holding other people's dogs

I turned my morning commute into a cinematic experience, complete with a soundtrack and an imaginary film crew

Now I'm just waiting for the Oscar nomination for 'Best Performance While Sitting in Traffic'
