Welcome to Seltzer Squad, the podcast about staying sober in the city with your host, Kate Sander and Jess Valentine. Hey, girlie. Hello. Happy New Year. Happy New Year. I'm so tired. I'm exhausted. I'm burnt out. How are you? Same. I feel like I think a lot of people are sharing that

sentiment. I know I feel like it was like Christmas came and there was that like weird couple of

weeks where it was Christmas on the weekend and the New Year's on the weekend. And I was like feeling like

myself finally like oh, I feel good. And then the

first week of January back to normal. And I'm like a shred of myself. It's only been 10 days.

I know. What did you get back? I got back New Year's Eve. Okay. I feel like I have so much to fill you in on.

Yeah, what the hell?

But I mean, I don't even know where to start.

The reason why I'm so tired is I'm burnt out.

I scheduled myself like to work basically every single day.

Tomorrow's, well, yes, I technically had off yesterday.

You probably drew.

Which was nice.

I did.

But I did see a friend, I saw my friend Sophie for lunch.

I went to the Bowie thing.

But like it was so cold out. It's so cold today. But yeah, I've just been working like nonstop. And the only day that I took off for myself last week, I got tattooed. And it was five and a half hours. Just a linework on my fucking chest. And neck, yeah. So my throat, yeah.

That's a lot.

So it takes so much out of me.

And it just really wasn't like a day off.

And then I'm excited that tomorrow and Thursday are my next full two days off.

But I have to drive upstate to drop the puppy off to her trainer.
