Jane Eyre and Mr. Rochester, Jane Eyre

Running Woes...
So the official diagnosis is that I definitely did something funky to the medial collateral ligaments on both knees. Whooops. I’ve been put on a running hiatus for the next week in an effort to get the near constant pain to ease and let my ligaments rest and heal up. Which actually sucks.

brain-food:
And the funny thing is, i shouldn’t have to tell you that. You should already know you’re fucking amazing. You don’t need me to tell you that, and you sure as fuck don’t need anybody else or the internet to tell you that. You should wake up every morning, roll out of bed, look into the mirror and…
