  • Get a haircut and give my stylist a 100% tip

  • Get a massage

  • Get another massage

  • Get a massage every day for a week straight (or longer)

  • Go to an in-person yoga class and give my teacher a humongous full-body hug that lasts at least a full minute

  • Take my daughter to Balboa Park, Little Italy, the waterfront path, Mission Beach, Gaslamp/East Village, and all my other favorite neighborhoods around the county

  • Let Onyx run free as long as she wants at Dog Beach

  • Stroll up and down every aisle at Trader Joe’s instead of quickly honing in on the exact items on my list and nothing else

  • Ditto for Target and TJ Maxx

  • Pick up items in stores, then change my mind and put them back

  • Visit my friend’s thrift shop and spend at least an hour perusing all the treasures and chatting

  • Get a tattoo

  • Do cartwheels at a trailhead because the trails are freaking open

  • Squeeze all the yarn at my favorite yarn store

  • Get in-person help on a tricky pattern at said yarn store instead of struggling through it myself with YouTube videos

  • High-five everybody at group runs

  • Browse at indie bookstores until I pick up two or three books that I was not already looking for

  • Spend a couple hours writing at my favorite coffee shops

  • Happy hour with my gamer babes, obviously

  • Dance at my brother’s wedding

  • Get a fresh donut

  • Take a zillion pictures of my daughter meeting my cousin’s baby boy for the first time

  • Nibble samples from the farmers’ market
