Geeked out over history & mused about where on-island the graveyard is etc 😳

I have gone full Halifax history nerd, for anyone remotely interested.
I find myself frequently wandering the streets after my tour-guiding shifts, admiring buildings and view planes and googling architecture info and staring googly-eyed at places like city hall & admiring its majesty

Just did something I don’t often (b/c choose your battles & also I chose to live in a rural suburban area) - asked the gas station attendant to try to not call me ‘m’dear’ and/or ‘honey’.
I advised I knew it was a regional thing & not meant to offend, but I’d really appreciate it.

When I started my wildly-short-post-work-hike it seemed like an investment in self-care & mindfulness…
..:but it I’ve once again over-estimated my mental & physical capability & though
I’m a mere 700m from my vehicle:..the urge to surrender to the wilderness & contact search & rescue is strong 😅

Finding Kafka a pretty entertaining read surprisingly. I’d only read The Trial and The Metamorphosis previously but he’s really good in general.

Pssst - be weird & vulnerable & take a chance & tell that gorgeous androgynous king in line for Tim’s that you appreciate their aesthetic as they’re the future the left wants…
…or leave a note in an awkward second language you don’t speak to let that entrepreneur in ur hood know you adore them 😻😻😻

Turning 41 tomorrow and my biggest wish is for the undeniable & unrepentant self-love of Kathy Bates’ (particularly in About Schmidt) to fill me like the feminist version of the Holy Spirit
