Things as simple as a missed call from an unknown number or someone knocking on your door put me into straight up fight or flight. I really do hide from people who come to my door. Real talk, I have gotten on my hands and knees below a window so they wouldn’t see me. I’ve even hidden in the closet. I know. Whacko.

I’m lazy as hell, you guys. I know it’s true and I’m not particularly ashamed.

I have a confession to make. Target, meh. I’m just not that into it.
