Re: Little Rants
My forties so far: doing tiresome stuff to be less tired (I also have a hangover from eating starburst)

Re: Little gusts of hot air that don't deserve their own thread.
I’m baffled by the popularity of white sneakers. Aren’t you worried about getting them dirty? I’m antsy just being in the room with a fresh pair. Is the appearance of an earth free lifestyle worth this Sword of Damocles?

Re: What are you listening to?
There’s a line in this song when they rhyme ‘unaware’ with ‘cares’ and I wonder if they originally used the perfectly appropriate ‘unawares’ but decided to change it because it just wasn’t country.

Re: What are you reading?
Best American Short Stories of the 20th Century as curated by John Updike. I’ve never been much of a short story reader. I guess I wanted to check the boxes of having read big long books, which I did and am still an idiot. There’s some really great stuff in this book and you can really get a sense o...

Re: Post Your Dream
I am trying to understand why in God's name I've woken up for the second night in a row now with the same New Kids On The Block song ringing in my ears as if it was really playing. Keep hangin’ tough and just take things step step by step. You’ve got the right stuff! Worse, it's Please Don't Go Gir...

Re: What are you reading?
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/5b/The_Lives_of_a_Cell.png I’ve seen this 1974 book in used bookstores for years and I finally picked it. It’s wonderful! That some of the science is dated only adds to the charm. It’s a series of essays that are both dense and short with the overall them...

Re: On the Top of Purpose
How important is purpose to you? In a day to day sense, quite a bit and it’s really the wind in my sails. E.g. I have to get up and take out the dog. In terms of moving with a purpose and having stuff to do, sign me up. In a grand sense, capital P Purpose is important but it feels like a millstone ...

Re: flirtation
Warm, if a little terse. Clean language. Not prying but helpful. Self-deprecating in a non-vitriolic kinda way. Not much for gossip. Smug but feels bad about it. Just my interpretation. I’m not a theologian.

Re: flirtation
When I was in my prime as a flirtee I just assumed people were making fun of me. “LMAO imagine someone actually flirting with this guy.” I didn’t realize I was, at one time, something of a catch until my late thirties. I guess I could still flirt. I’m just not a naughty person and I think that’s the...
