I’m on the verge of missing the opportunity to dress as Trillian and throw a Hitchhiker’s Guide themed party for my 42nd next month…

Because I’m a woman on the internet, the algorithm sends me content such as “things you can do to glow up in a month.” Let me tell you that half of them I was already doing, and the other half was unscientific nonsense. So I guess this is peak! Next stop: stagnation and decline!

I’m trying to document my past costumes, but it’s an ordeal. Also trying to be more comfortable in front of the camera again. Have a silly one for reading along :) x

@ProtagonistIvy You’re a cool person, and I hope I get to know 30s and 40s Ivy too!

@ProtagonistIvy That’s very sweet of you! I certainly like life better this way. It’s more of an adventure: 22 year old me was bold in some ways, fearful in others. I’m proud of myself for cool things I did, don’t beat myself up for bad choices. I see a lot of people in their 20s now who take …
