In this age of great travel, with sights far and near,
Adventure awaits,
🌎 the world's crystal clear. 🔮
Yes, trotting the globe is a wonderful quest!
But knowing your town?
🟰 It’s just as the best. ⚖️
So explore all the places, both foreign, and known!
Just always remember:
❤️ to cherish your home. 🏠

Took those eyes on a date, yo.
Love, I could stare into your eyes all day
So I attended this very small play at a local community spot. Very rough, but it had its charm. But there was this one part I still think about. The actors made an unscripted mistake; ofc, it was laughed off but... I don't believe it was real. Manufactured authenticity. The play itself does touch on topics like viral marketing. Call me paranoid, but I suspect it was built-in; to invoke relatability. And I can't decide which is sadder: my cynicism or, that, even there, at such an inconsequential happening, sincerity is hard to find.
Heh, it was literally in her name.
Dam, yo. Where are MY honorific superpowers???

I swear I've heard this s— irl:
"If your life was a movie genre, which would it be?"
Cringe comedy. Your question is proof.
It's the vitamin D. It's gotta B.
It is 2023.
Friday is our holy day.
Saturday, if you disagree.
But anybody saying Sunday,
is a "man out of time"...
Or Luke Smith.
Whichever comes first.

Hmm.
"You'll never amount to anything."
I wonder if I'd be a better teacher if I occasionally told my students that.
Prove me wrong, kid.

I seem to never find the space.
No, I can never maintain pace.
Will I ever stop this chase?
GEORGE, please grant me some digital grace.

Oh. Hello there, little void.
Sorry, got a bit distracted.
Met some cool people.
It does sound stupid.
This is going to make me sound stupid, but it just clicked for me yesterday: "Social media is for socializing." I hate social(izing?) / media, but recently I've been joining a bunch of webrings and one of them requires members to use it. I had been treating it a bit like 'thoughts', and hating it. 'thoughts' is for me, I can tolerate social media when it's for others. Hearing about what they have to share, celebrating them, maybe participating slightly. I can manage that.
A (sad?) truth: I'm happier / more comfortable / safer in the void.
Counting the hours
Still alive. GEORGE bless antibiotics. But there's definitely an underlying problem to solve.
Pretty sure I fixed the cough. Seems to have just been me ignoring my sinuses. GEORGE bless NeilMed.
Unfortunately, I think I got a more serious problem...
I felt lighter today. How cliché.
Got a cough that won't go away. A little worried.
It means so little... It costs me so little. It's the least I can do.
Throwing a frisbee around with friends is the best
