not your mom's socks.

Ooof Sarameg so much settle-down until the 13th for your parts.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Seconding a better ratio for a Jesse.

Sarameg I hope the 13h comes quickly for your sake.

There is a strange stairwell at work with one set of stairs wrapped around another such that you can't get from the third floor to a useful part of the first floor without either going through a rehearsal room on the second floor to switch staircases or... climb the railings. I'm relatively long legged so I have been known to go over the railings a time or two. Today must have been the first time I've done it while carrying a box though. I may have stretched something a liiiiiitle too far. Ow.

aurelia, that sounds like a fire hazard. And truly weird.

Yeah, I will try to remind myself of potential badness. Partly my concern is im really bad at hiding my feelings. So I worry the friend will pick up on it and awkward will ensue. But also because this is a friend and someone I like as a person, I want to hang out and have fun with them and not like, stop being friends! (Only hanging out in a group is one step but...apparently not enough, as there was some cuddling on the couch while watching movies that I should've not done)

But cuddling is nice!

Cuddling IS nice!! And I feel like I've only recently got a group of friends again where we are more cuddly? I feel like it's depressing how little human touch single adults get. And that's probably part of why I am starting to crush, though.

We're social animals! We need some consensual not-necessarily-sexed-up touching!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Before my alarm went off this morning (oh, 6:45AM meeting, je despise vous), I was having a dream where someone was illustrating something with a math concept, but (our) Hillary was sitting next to me and making frustrated noises until the person stopped and let her explain it correctly.

Fancy cocktails with Jesse definitely helped my ratio!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

There were no cheese or pickles, but it was still good!

Thanks to Lee on Facebook, I am now looking up Caribbean vacations...

I'm sitting in on a course in a university business school. It's actually a lot more interesting than I'd expected.
