LOVE
Taylor
(00:00:00):
So I used to do this thing on Instagram called car chats with Taylor time.
(00:00:05):
Um, and they don't really go on Instagram anymore.
(00:00:08):
So I think I'm going to turn this into like maybe a mini series that I post
(00:00:12):
whenever the fuck I feel like it.
(00:00:15):
Um, but I have a car chat for you and it's literally about my car.
(00:00:20):
This week has not been my fucking week.
(00:00:23):
Nope, nope, nope.
(00:00:24):
It really has not.
(00:00:26):
Uh, earlier this week, uh,
(00:00:28):
Somehow I missed, completely missed a truck that was behind me and backed right into it.
(00:00:36):
I have a fucking backup camera.
(00:00:38):
Somehow I still didn't see it.
(00:00:41):
So now I have a lovely dent in the side of my car.
(00:00:43):
And then today I was in such a wonderful mood.
(00:00:47):
I was singing.
(00:00:48):
I was having a great morning.
(00:00:50):
I was vibing.
(00:00:51):
And I'm like, all right, time to go to the gym.
(00:00:54):
Cause Dee went and went mountain biking.
(00:00:56):
And so get dressed, get in the car.
(00:00:59):
And I'm like, what the fuck?
(00:01:00):
Where are my headphones?
(00:01:02):
And I start looking around and I noticed that there was other things missing and
(00:01:08):
that my center console was open.
(00:01:09):
I was like, oh my God, did they get stolen?
(00:01:12):
And then I looked and the fucking housing around my steering wheel was all popped up.
(00:01:17):
They tried to motherfucking hotwire my car.
(00:01:20):
They tried to hotwire my car.
(00:01:21):
I was so angry.
(00:01:24):
and so sad because those are my favorite pair of beats and it's 100 a first world
(00:01:30):
problem i'm like oh my god maybe it's got stolen and i have to use my other beats
(00:01:36):
but at the same time like i'm sad those are my favorite pair of headphones and they
(00:01:42):
were a gift and like right now i'm not gonna be able to get a new pair so i'm back
(00:01:46):
to using my older ones but like
(00:01:49):
I was really, really sad.
(00:01:51):
And in that moment, I wanted to just stay there.
(00:01:54):
I wanted to stay in those feelings.
(00:01:56):
I wanted to be sad.
(00:01:58):
But my best friend reminded me, give yourself some grace.
(00:02:01):
These next two weeks are really hard.
(00:02:03):
You're already emotional.
(00:02:04):
It's OK to feel sad about those things.
(00:02:07):
And I was like, you're right.
(00:02:10):
So I felt sad, and then I was like, I don't want this ruining my whole day.
(00:02:13):
I was in such a good mood this morning, and I was like, fuck this.
(00:02:16):
So I hopped on the cycle bike at the gym in the cycle room,
(00:02:19):
which is kind of hidden,
(00:02:20):
which was perfect,
(00:02:21):
and I put on my angriest music,
(00:02:25):
and I was just fucking screaming Falling Rivers of Mice of Men,
(00:02:30):
Metallica,
(00:02:31):
all of that shit in the cycle room while powering out on the cycle.
(00:02:34):
And I feel great now.
(00:02:36):
Am I still angry?
(00:02:37):
A little, yeah.
(00:02:39):
And I'm more annoyed at myself than anything else because this could have been
(00:02:42):
avoided had I locked my fucking car.
(00:02:44):
But I sometimes think that I'm invincible and nothing applies to me and I forget to do those things.
(00:02:50):
So it's like the universe going like, hey, hey, hey, hey.
(00:02:54):
But there was something even more expensive in the back that they didn't take that the universe saved us.
(00:03:00):
and so the universe totally what is this person doing right now in the car fun fact
(00:03:07):
with car tents you get to hear all my crazy shenanigans too this person just was
(00:03:10):
being wild anyway the universe saved us there because that would have been like
(00:03:14):
five times worse than losing my headphones so while i'm very frustrated and sad
(00:03:22):
because i will very much miss those beats they were so cushy
(00:03:26):
So cushy.
(00:03:27):
At least the other thing was not taken.
(00:03:29):
So they also stole a lighter and a little tiny perfume or cologne of Dee's,
(00:03:35):
which I thought was super weird.
(00:03:38):
And nothing else was touched.
(00:03:40):
So I don't know if they got spooked.
(00:03:42):
Maybe one of our dogs barked at them because we have four dogs in our house right
(00:03:45):
now because I watch dogs for extra money.
(00:03:48):
But our dogs are not kind looking dogs.
(00:03:51):
So maybe they scared them.
(00:03:52):
I don't know.
(00:03:54):
The point of this is it's okay to feel sad.
(00:03:56):
It's okay to be angry.
(00:03:57):
It's okay to miss something, but it's, it doesn't need to consume your entire day.
(00:04:02):
Like you can feel the feelings, recognize your feelings, honor them, and then go on about your day.
(00:04:09):
And that would have not been something I would have been able to do literally a year ago.
(00:04:13):
It would have ruined my whole fucking week.
(00:04:15):
So I'm really thankful for that growth.
(00:04:18):
Okay.
(00:04:19):
I hope you enjoyed this car chat.
(00:04:20):
Bye.
