I haven't decided if adding "Not a safe bet" to my online dating profile will work for or against me.
Maybe the next time my phone's battery dies I'll bury the whole thing, have a funeral for the future, then walk away in peace.
I can't tell if I'm heartbroken or if I just need a nap. I guess i'll check again tomorrow.
Good start to color day
Thank Zeus for quiet Lyft drivers.
As a full-time public transit taker, my life becomes ridiculous whenever the suburbs are involved, and rain like today's casts a gloom over the whole thing. What's that become, a grey comedy?
And bass lines.
I forgot how much I enjoy whistling the horn parts in '90s ska.
I met a new member of staff at work today.
She's in her early Twenties and is registered as legally blind. She is completely blind in one eye, and has something like 10% sight in the other. She has a guide dog which sometimes stays at work with her (in the staff room) and uses a cane - but not at work.
Considering all of the above, she manages to make her way around the store, read product labels - sometimes with the use of a magnifying glass, use the till, and demonstrate the products (body lotions etc.) to the customers.
She has just finished a Masters Degree in Children's Literature, writes articles for various websites, and has a very active YouTube channel.
To say that I was inspired by her would be an understatement.
Don't live with your bedroom with a window above the parking lot of a cruddy bar.
I should start a tumblr for all the links people send me that they just know I'll love. I call it, "It'd be great just once for a friend to know me as well as they think they know me."
I just spent all day packing handmade gourmet popcorn into bags and boxes. What a great little company 😄
My back is going to hate me tomorrow, though, especially if I don’t move from this bed before falling asleep tonight. It’s sooooo comfortable.
Emotions are close to the surface today.
New subscription-based business idea: Serialized fiction on postcards.
I started wearing cologne most days a few week ago, and now I find myself completely irresistible.
Maybe I'll be able to think clearly again by the end of the month.
Thanks to @CobaltVelvet for being an awesome sysadmin and steward of this fine place!
Yay! The quiet room is quiet now, and it’s glorious 😄
