I’m friends with my dentist outside of the office and when I see her in social/non-professional settings I CAN’T be cool. I always steer conversation toward my mouth or the fact that I love to floss my teeth or something. why can’t I be cool about this
(she’s the only person who acts interested in my flossing habits and I want to talk to someone about it SOBADLY.)
I met a guy at a bar (?) who said I’m “really hot” so I KISSED HIM ON THE CHEEK and rolled away. I am a grandmother
I got a new printer/scanner/copier and the Achilles Jones Arena is officially MY OFFICE because I WORK FROM HOME and it’s the greatest feeling in the world.
new desk, new file cabinet, and ability to print my documents. life doesn’t get any better.
(that last sentence is sad. hopefully not true I guess)
I bought a pack of 36 pens on eBay that aren’t all the way full of ink and I found a coffee shop with an attractive waiter on Cary Street so my new deal is go to the coffee place with a new pen, write a story until it runs out of ink, go home. They also don’t charge me for tea bags (because I’m there so often? because of my beauty? choose your adventure) so my bladder is full, urinary tract so healthy. Mid-day work week freedom is the greatest part of my life right now
I left my phone number on a receipt for my attractive waiter and we have a date tomorrow. HAHA lost control
Ever since joining all these (2) book clubs I have an acute love for picking my own book to read. One book club is great but sometimes chooses classics (don’t love) and the other one so far just chooses bad books (so far. hope is still alive). But I CHOOSE great books for myself to read EACH TIME. reading is fun
** those beautiful moments that you’re wearing a dress but haven’t pulled it down around your waist then you go outside and it’s like you’re only wearing a t shirt but you’re actually doing the right thing
I Bumble matched with a guy at 8:30am, going to brunch with him at 10:30am. Beautiful Tuesday morning. CRAMMING IN THE DATES. (submitting my book next week))
Best pick up line: “Excuse me ma’am will you tell me about how your disability has impacted your life?”

(but we’re going on a date this Saturday)
Update: Louis is still alive. When I woke up this morning he was sitting on my bottom lip so I definitely want him dead again
PSA
As adults, FLOSS. because if you don’t floss, food rots in between your teeth and you develop a STENCH that doesn’t go away when you brush because food has ROTTED between there for so long and your mouth smells like puke no matter what. so far I know 3 adults with this problem and I don’t think they even know it because who is going to address that issue? no one. I bet no one will. it’s very nast, though. floss your teeth, people
I went on a date today, played the same game. It’s really weird that I keep suggesting it, but it’s kind of fun. Today’s date guessed correctly. Congrats, Zack
I just went on a date with an attractive and friendly young man and we played the game Freckle or Dried Blood? about the dot on my lip. I got to choose the ice breaker.
(spoiler alert: it’s dried blood. I like how it looks, though, so I leave it alone.)
being at home in the middle of the day means I sat on my back porch without a shirt on. IT WAS VERY EXCITING. and scary and risky and brave
There’s a fly in my bathroom named Louis and I want him dead
People say this will happen but I didn’t think it would apply to a FLY in my BATHROOM: once you give it a name, attachment.
But it did and flies only live about 3 days so I think I’ll be sad when Louis dies. I trap him in my bathroom so I can keep track of him and sometimes I talk to him (WEIRD BUT TRUE).
Two indications: 1. maybe I’m at home too much and need to get out of the house. 2. I might be a crazy person
Achilles has fallen asleep [in bed next to me] with her head on my shoulder for the past two nights and I can’t believe I’m entertaining the idea of getting an additional puppy. We are in our sweet spot
