Tossed up between frozen pizza or homemade stir fry tonight

I was staring at the freezer for 5 minutes trying to decide. Frozen pizza is easy but I had some bell peppers and snap peas about to go bad. Went with the stir fry. Threw it all in a hot pan with some soy sauce and garlic. Took maybe 15 minutes total. Anyone else have a hard time picking between the quick option versus using up what's in the fridge?

Read somewhere that decision fatigue is real, so maybe both options are fine.

Stare at the freezer long enough and you start noticing its a metaphor for how we live now. Every time I choose the stir fry over the pizza I feel like Im winning at adulthood for like one second. But the frozen pizza is always there waiting, its the path of least resistance. Same thing happens with my phone vs a book at night, or scrolling social media vs calling a friend. The easy option is always whispering your name and the hard one takes actual effort. Most of the time I give in to the pizza, but tonight I surprised myself. Its those little wins that add up over time I guess.
