How have you treated yourself recently? As in, something you did just for yourself.

Have you gotten yourself something for your own benefit recently? A treat of some kind, gift to yourself, or solo outing/activity? or did something for yourself that you've been wanting to do for a while? What was it?

I'll start -
I just ordered two card games to start building my home party game collection, I got myself a giant bag of frozen french toast sticks yesterday because I was craving easy comfort foods, and I found two random vinyls at my local thrift store earlier this week that had interesting/cool cover art.

I bought booze. Nice coconut rum. I drank a loooooot of it tonight. That was my treat to me.

I ended up with a woman's hand on my thigh and she asked for my pone number, so....yay, rum?

I bought myself some flowers last week that are gorgeous. Did it to cheer myself up after my application for criminal compensation was declined, and I'm never going to get any justice and no one is ever going to face consequences for what they did to me.

The flowers did cheer me up.

I picked up a few bottles of liquor for myself. Turns out I’m not really a bourbon person—except for Wild Turkey 101 and Rare Breed, which I actually enjoy. Rye whiskey, though, is definitely my thing, so I grabbed Wild Turkey Rare Breed Rye, Jack Daniel’s Single Barrel Barrel Proof Rye, and Michter’s Rye. I also stocked up on a variety of bitters to experiment with.

Every afternoon at 4, I pour myself a double on the rocks. It’s become a small ritual I look forward to, a moment of calm I anticipate as the day winds down.

I am jealous! That's something I look forward to in my next place.

I have always felt unworthy on an unconscious level. 15 months ago I splurged on a new dirt bike, a really good one. I ride it in the desert almost everyday. When I ride everything else gets tuned out. It is a great stress reliever. I recently had new floors put in the house and I am buying almost all new furniture. I just purchased a Sprinter van so I can go nomad next summer to escape the heat. I will bring a motorcycle, a bicycle and my dog. A few years ago I was incapable of doing anything like this for myself. I have learned so much about myself here.

Gotta know, what did you get? Large two strokes were the hot ticket when i was riding desert, hard to beat the yamaha's. IT 490 was my best. Then i rode the fire roads a bunch and big four strokes were all you saw, honda 500 and a 650. settled on an XR 400 to get rid of the waterweight but my son’s yamaha 450 was better, by far.
now i dont know whats hot anymore, and the market is flooded with euro bikes- Whats a good one nowadays? My riding days are past, but i loved it and miss it

I went book shopping and, while looking for a nice new fantasy world to get lost in, found this:

I feel weirdly called out? 'Seen', as they say?

Anyway, I bought it, naturally.

I have a Husqvarna—

Sewing machine!

Today I asked my co-worker to pick me up a lunch when she went out. I also went roller skating at the rink for an hour and trimmed my fingernails. Am taking better care of myself these days.
