You people will finish me on that app

the last 48 hours in no particular order: saw fat joe, got called a halfblood, hail, did a presentation of work I’m v proud of to 150 irl, found a butter soft brown leather jacket, ate mezcal and pecan ice cream, snow.

I unexpectedly had no WiFi today, so all my Zooms became calls instead. I went on several walks, engaged in the outside world and am not dead inside like I usually am by 6pm. What a wow.
