Funny realization: I've always said I'm not competitive. That's not really true. I am. I just hate having competition.
Getting annoyed when 10-12 year olds pass me in the pool during lessons or when the cyclist lap me at the lake makes sense now.
I know I'm a bad poet, but I'm a good man. All I ask is that... is that you try to see me—

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Okay, buncha updates done. Will rest for now.
Hey, Perkins, did you watch CM last night? No one got fed to the pigs in that episode, if you want to catch up on it. The ending(s) still packed all the punch for me, all of them, really, even though I knew what was coming each time.

and While I absolutely love frank's white clam sauce pizza -- it was raining last night and there was a line out the door and down the block ( there always is a line) -- it is still pizza. Dh does a wonderful version that is a good as you can get in a regular oven.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Thanks for all the birthday wishes! Work was very busy, but there was awesome sorbet and gelato, and now I am home, with sushi, and booze, and a cupcake, so I am counting today as a total win, and that's even before Nilly's wedding pictures, which make it super fantastic!
Next time I see you I'm going to buy you a drink!
AWESOME! Have a great flight tomorrow, and try to save some of the Vegas for me.
You still suck.
Nu uh! It's my birthday, so you suck twice as hard.
Hey, Perkins, did you watch CM last night?
I literally just watched the last few minutes as I was cathcing up here. Is that enough?

Season-premierwise, yes. I think you could handle the whole thing, and it was quite an affecting episode-- (the unsubs were great, as was Sharif Atkins) so I wanted to give you that heads up that it wasn't all piggy pig pig disgusting.
