All I want is a quaint château in the French countryside, a raging snowstorm, a crackling fire, a vintage copy of Victor Hugo‘s The Hunchback of Notre Dame, a whistling kettle on the stove, an owl keeping watch, and a basket of emotional support croissants.

At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.

You refer to eating an entire bag of crisps in one sitting as “mildly concerning”.

I refer to it as “seeing things through” and “not being a quitter”.

Everything is all about perspective.

If we can’t enjoy a bottle of Cabernet together by the fireplace in an abandoned Victorian mansion under a full moon on a cold winter’s night with the sound of wolves in the distance whilst we wax poetic about our hopes, dreams, and people we want to haunt in the afterlife, then what’s the point?

I don’t need to be “wealthy”, per se. I just want to have enough money to buy my own castle on the Scottish coast so that I can never be seen again.

It was Winston’s birthday yesterday! He’s 4, but still a rascal! And also cold. So I got him a cool dude denim jacket and now he looks like he wants my lunch money.

Don’t allow anyone to tell you that being a library ghost in the afterlife “doesn’t classify” as an appropriate long-term goal.

Someone asked me why I talk to my cats because, in their words, “It’s not like your pets understand what you are saying.”

Suffice to say, there comes a time when a friendship has simply run its course.
