Deep into Paul Simon atm. My first time giving real time to his work. The innocence in his music makes more sense to me now I’m a bit older.

Loved this! In smell there are no true synonyms (which is also true of language too of course).

Am only gonna only be using social media at weekends for a bit. I wanna protect weekdays as a space where I have permission to be unwashed, alone in my room and clucking from dopamine withdrawal. It’s a self care thing. xx

I felt shin splints in my leg again on my run this morning. I have just rubbed some denial on where the pain is. Am feeling extremely positive about training again tomorrow.

Today, at my Nan’s funeral, I saw a photo of her as a teenager for the first time.
