I’m not sure what’s happening with my Hoosiers in this game right now. Freakin Princeton? The commentators just tried to throw out some positive perspective. They think this is Brunk’s best game...of the season. They had a whole conversation about it. About whether or not it was. His best game. Of the season. And decided … Continue reading Split Loyalties
My Awkward Self
A Very Special Gift
So, I’m at the age now where people gift me pantyliners. Like, they hand me a bag and say, “Here is a gift to help you control your pee.” It probably doesn’t help that I had to clean up my own pee from the bathroom floor at work the other day. But still. I feel … Continue reading A Very Special Gift
This Is Just What We Do Now
I’m a helper. I like to help. Even maybe when no one asks or even wants me to. My co-worker didn’t ask me to help this morning. But there were a LOT of names on the absent staff board. And the system needed to help develop a coverage plan was down. And so I was … Continue reading This Is Just What We Do Now
Brittany Runs A Marathon
If you are anywhere in my vicinity today, and wondering what that smell is, it’s me. It’s Fall Risk’s fault. I don’t generally leave the house for social purposes after 5pm on a school night. But she and Rogue and LL decided to go see Brittany Runs A Marathon last night. In Grandin. At 7pm. … Continue reading Brittany Runs A Marathon
Y’all Keep Laughing
Last week a co-worker told me I’m basically Dwight. Because I’ve somehow gotten mixed up in a prank war. That I’m not actually playing. I think I’m more of a Michael, but whatevs. People just don’t understand me. I’ve been sedentary for a week. Partly due to my porch injury. Mostly due to my lack … Continue reading Y’all Keep Laughing
Unnervingly Compliant
Facebook wants me to date again. I’m gonna guess he wants some of y’all to, too. So it’s probably not a targeted attempt to make me feel any kind of way. But this suggestion came at a particularly vulnerable moment. Because I was just coming out of the most awkward massage I’ve ever encountered. And … Continue reading Unnervingly Compliant
Taper Week Energy
I'm on mandatory taper this week. I don't make these rules. I don't make any of my own life rules. Rogue told me me not to be myself yesterday. Her exact words were "don't go full Sunshine right outta the gate, because without context it can be a little scary." And, I mean, it's probably … Continue reading Taper Week Energy
Car Talk
Y'all don't impress me with your fancy car words. Remember the time that car dude rejected me and gave me a sticker so the whole world knew? So, I came back to that place this morning. Because I haven't gotten my oil changed in about 15,000 miles. And apparently you have to rotate tires every … Continue reading Car Talk
I Said More Awkward Words
I need to probably not spend so much time in places with people. Went to see my girl, Stephanie, today. Every other month or so, I visit her and ask her to please make the top of my head not look like I've just completely given up on life. And so she goes to work … Continue reading I Said More Awkward Words
Please Stop Talking
Sometimes I think I'd like to figure out whatever look or vibe I have that invites random people to say words to me. So I can disable that function. After our North Mountain Dehydration Session Saturday, Rogue and I collapsed at the picnic tables outside of the convenience store with all of our rehydration methods. … Continue reading Please Stop Talking
