24 Dates To Take Yourself On | Thought Catalog

This weekend I am taking myself on a date! I'm going get a massage, order some nice Thai takeout, go to see The Grand Budapest Hotel, stop by the Coldstone in the cinema plaza afterward for some awesome mint brownie ice cream, and maybe pick up some gin (or wine!) on my way home.

As much as I enjoy going to the movies with others (when they don't constantly interrupt my immersion!) and being able to discuss the film aferward, I've made peace with going by myself in the last few years. And before I go, I'm going to do what every smart person does and go to the smurfing grocery store to get snacks to hide in my duffel-sized purse because smurf spending $15 on popcorn, candy, or soda.

When is the last time you did something for yourself? Do more things for yourself! You deserve it!

PS: #22 is what I do every weekend anyway. The binge show-watching, that is.
