Does anyone else overthink seating? I try to fold myself into chairs so I don’t take up too much space, but sometimes I just wonder: what’s fair? What’s kind? Where does courtesy end and self-erasure begin?

Major victory today! I didn't exercise but I considered it. If I keep up the momentum tomorrow, I may even mull it over.

I envy people who can wear white without fear. Me? I see a ketchup packet across the room and my shirt already has a stain. The universe has chosen me as its canvas.

I always think I’ll walk into a room unnoticed. Then I do walk in, and the air changes, just slightly, like someone flicked the dimmer switch. I never know if it’s awe or horror or curiosity, and I’m too shy to ask.

Why do people get offended when you don’t know the office gossip? I’d rather stay clueless and eat my sandwich in peace than learn who’s feuding with who. Naïveté is underrated.

Sometimes I wear a jacket just to have something to hold in front of me when I sit down. Not for warmth. Just for coverage. Like a throw blanket at a gynecologist’s office.

There should be a word for the specific kind of panic when you're halfway through telling a story and realize it's not as funny as you thought and now everyone’s just... watching you drown.

accidentally made extended eye contact with the Trader Joe’s cashier while buying 3 types of cheese and nothing else.
he said “big plans?” and I said “no.”
I meant it in the existential sense.

someone held the elevator for me while i was still 20 feet away and i had to do That Trot.

the “i’m not running, i’m just grateful and heavily jiggling” trot.
anyway i will be thinking about that body motion for the rest of the day.

sometimes I rehearse how I’ll talk about my weight on a date and then remember: no one has asked me out. but I’m ready. I have metaphors. I have timing. I have five jokes and one sudden moment of realness.

I don’t have the golden-hour-on-a-deck beer pic, but I do have a rich, thick, malty Backwoods Bastard in hand and the kind of day that needed it. Just me, this beer, and the quiet hum of almost-feeling-okay.

I thought D&D would be a low-stakes reentry into the world. Just dice, goblins, and maybe a snack.
Instead I got a table full of teenage boys and one quiet guy with holes in his hoodie.
