Ridiculously relatable. Somewhere between Panic and Rage is also usually when I’m texting my best friend that I’m not coming, I don’t know why we made these plans, I can’t leave the house, and in fact I’m never leaving the house again.

This has been my life everyday for the past year. I don’t know if it’s menopause or what but all of a sudden I HATE everything in my closet. Nothing works together. Nothing fits. I don’t have the right shoes. I am squash. Thank you for seeing us, we squash people. 😂

I felt this to my core

All of it. My husband is so patient when I panic-dress myself, and tell him the "alright, let's go" at the end!

This essay was, in addition to being so completely relatable, a total delight. I honked with laughter (genuinely, a honk, which alarmed everyone sitting around me) at least 3 times.

I laugh because this was literally me last weekend. Always so confident the outfit I'd picked in my head will work that I wait until there's 15 minutes before I need to leave to get dressed. MISTAKE.

So glad we have you to record these deeply relatable but hard to articulate moments of life!!! Love every essay you write.

If there is a woman alive who hasn't had this exact experience multiple times she is very lucky!
