    WHAT'S ON YOUR...

    Perennial To-Do List: Hang up my clothes— my room gets so messy so fast. And pick up packages at the post office. There's always a massive line and one window open, so I end up walking in, then turning right around.

    Mind: Trying to overcome my social anxiety. It's manifested in trichotillomania, a disorder that gives me the urge to pull out my eyelashes.

    Bed: A Lady Americana California King mattress and Restoration Hardware duvet.

    Go-To Menu: Thai delivery. I over-order so I can have leftovers for two days.
