If you’re one of the 5 – 7 loyal readers we’ve acquired over the past few months, we may have let you down in the past week. More of a “I’m not mad I’m just disappointed,” kind of letdown than a “how DARE you remake Ghostbusters and cast Leslie Jones as a main character,” type but still, we haven’t posted the normal content you’ve come to know and love. We have a million excuses for not writing and it mostly comes down to one of us being sick (Chelsea) and one of us being a HBIC at work (Whitney).

This blog is one of our favorite things and we promise that new, exciting content is in the works. City and travel guides! Struggles with healthy eating! An Amanda Chantal Bacon inspired cleanse! Just you wait.

In the meantime, here are a bunch of other reasons we haven’t been writing:

The Great British Bake Off is on Netflix (The only prize is a cake stand? They’re all so polite? MARY BERRY?! I’m in love.)

I’m off dating apps but I’m not off obsessing over every mistake I’ve ever made on a date and if I don’t sit and think about those things, who will?

Every few months I remember these videos exist and bye everyone and everything for 2 – 3 hours.

I had a writing class (I skipped it. See: I had a cold)

I had a spin class (I skipped it. See: I had a cold)

I thought I had appendicitis for 4 hours (See: use your imagination)

LOL

Why write when I can work out?

Why work out when I have to clean my room?

Why clean my room when TV is a thing?

Why work out when I can fall into bed after an 18 hour day and read “Why Not Me?” until my beady little eyes close in reluctant slumber?

Remember book club? I just finished Fates and Furies. It’s a great read and the perfect excuse to neglect everything else important in your life.

Why write when there are breakfast burritos in the next room?

Flossie Dickey is so tired. Same.

Old people are killing it this month. How can I be expected to write when I can watch videos like this?

I’m not eating sugar, gluten, and dairy so is there a reason to write, let alone live?

I had to lay in bed and watch the entire John Oliver episode where he drags Trump because it’s my civic duty.

We’re captivated by the most elaborate PR campaign for a TV show in history (see Donald Trump runs for president, this has to be a joke, this has to be promotion for another shitty season of The Apprentice, etc.)

So as you can tell – we’ve been a little preoccupied. Thanks for checking in on us. Things to make you laugh and cry and get inspired coming soon. Soon my sweet friends. Soon.
