About a third of the way through, I started mentally picking favorite quotes to put up here to convince you all to read it. About two-thirds of the way through, I gave up - there were too many bits that are funny or heartbreaking or just authentically true.
So trust me, take a few minutes out of your day, and go read it. Yes, I know it's long. Yes, I know this is the Internet and anything that takes longer than thirty seconds is outside your attention span. Yes, you could write a tl;dr version, but the beauty and truthfulness of her answer lies in its roundabout and disorganized style.
Just read it. It's worth your time.
