I dunno... when I told someone I bought them for myself, they told me that it was kinda sad, but I felt like I deserved them. Why am I expected to wait around for someone else to gift them? I've always wanted them and I finally got them for myself. Look how good they look!
Sometimes, things we enjoy doing start to become like a chore if we overdo them. I feel like (especially if the things you do are on the creative side) taking a step back for some time really helps to get back in groove.
