Everyone else is already taken.

I've been wanting to write a longer post about this since the Diane Sawyer interview, but I haven't been able to cobble together my thoughts. So I will just say this: I've come to think of the Kardashians as attention-seeking and basically classless, but I am so impressed by Caitlyn Jenner. Do you, girl.

Speaking of, I just want to reiterate what a delight self-acceptance is. I have become super out of shape and overweight, and while I'm taking steps to remedy the out-of-shape part for health reasons, I'm not ashamed of how I look. I laid out at the pool yesterday, and in the past I would've felt self-conscious when it became crowded with ripped bros and five-foot-tall women in adorable bikinis. But the sun was shining and the water was cool, and I couldn't find a single fuck to give. I would like to thank age, or the benevolent force of the universe, for that gift. I'm endlessly grateful.
