Some quick thoughts that could probably be tweets but I only want to hit “post” once:
1. People you love dying is a huge downer. Also total conversation killer. Basically
“My [insert deceased] died”
“Oh my god, I’m so sorry”
“It’s alright”
And then the conversation ends more or less as neither party wants to get too deep in an effort to keep the other party from feeling awkward. I don’t mean that as a judgment on either end (although maybe I am just doing it wrong) but it does seem like death is one of those shitty marriages of intense personal pain and awkward social perfunctory functionality (also one of my weak points).
2. With the introduction of chocolate squares at level 51 I am finally ready to say enough with Candy Crush.
3. Maybe not. Stay tuned.
4. After more or less 10 days of eating like crap and being off the regular exercise regime due to travel my older self should not jumped into two hard workouts in a row. I am on day 2 of letting crippling lower back pain subside.
5. I wish Garfield’s Monday strips involved more outward violence or self-immolation. Motherfucker monopolized the Monday griping without hitting any of the true depression and anguish.
