Whoa. People. Slow down, y’all. Tap those brakes. No need to have a public meltdown because there are so many things happening with Denton life. We get it, this town is awesome. But at a certain point, we have to resign ourselves to Taoist level intensities because admit it, we can’t do every single thing in our top ten list. So take a deep breath, schedule a hot-yoga class, eat a cinnamon roll from Royal’s Bagels and submit to the writings of Lao-tzu that advocate humility and religious piety. That dude was on to something in the 6th century BC that can definitely be applied to living in Denton in 2017. If you think your pics cut the mustard, use the ever-popular #WDDI hashtag on your ‘grams and if you’re lucky or pious enough, they’ll be featured in our What We Did. Looking for tons of Thin Line photos this week, y’all.
