Love ALL this: "We attended a Harry Styles concert—where I screamed and cried like the 15-year-old I’m not—and then flew to Cleveland on four hours of sleep for a baby shower. It was a lovely time with family, despite the fact that I somehow announced to an entire table of sweet Ohio grandmothers: “I’m on that good birth control!!” [Reader, a full eight hours of sleep is important!]"

Gosh, I love you!

I'd go to a Bruno Mars concert or Michael Buble, but if David Cassidy dressed up like his 1970s self and promised to sing I Think I Love You, NO QUESTION. And guess what? You're the first person I ever heard say the words "Michael Buble."

I feel so lighthearted after reading this! 😁

I love when you show me the parts that made you chuckle! It helps me see where I got myself across!

Ooh Bruno Mars is definitely one of Ben's -- honestly me, too! What a performer he is. Oh my goodness, I got a GREAT laugh out of imagining David Cassidy dressed up like his 70s self and you going to see!!

I was the first person to say Michael Buble in your presense!? this is a STORY I have never heard??

Oh, and Harry Styles FOR SURE is on my concert wish list. But I’m sad he’s dating Olivia Wilde now. I just got a tshirt with Ted Lasso’s face on it for $2 in the clearance bin and I sport it proudly and I can’t forgive Olivia for what she did even if it WAS for Harry.

I watched the trailer for that documentary, and as someone who chose Shakespeare in Canada as their teenage cultural moment, you KNOW I had no idea who Manti Te’o is or what happened to him, but bloody hell that looked compelling, disturbing, and heartbreaking!!! 😰

On the other side, in one week I have binged 10 episodes of season 1 of Never Have I Ever and I cannot get enough!!!!!!!!
