Make a New Normal

Living

Life is hard. And full. And awesome. Live it.

  • What two decades of doing laundry one way and then taking a chance on doing it differently taught me about change.

  • The Week

    Why does the week start so well and end with such a sense of failure and missed opportunity? And why does this happen every time?

  • Inside

    Everyone on the inside loves inside jokes. People on the outside feel excluded by them. All of this is founded on assumptions.

  • The phrase “self-care” doesn’t just give off weird vibes. Its fundamental flaw is contained in the wording itself.

  • I love music. Famously addicted to shoegazing and dreampop. Then—I stopped. Here’s why I’m bringing it back.

  • Is it Drew’s Day or Drews Day? In a sense, it is all the same. Our day or the day we celebrate all the Drews. I’ll take it either way.
