no phone call, but she explained why and it’s fair
Yo!
The streak of speaking to Shannon on the phone ended at 55 days, but that’s a good chunk of time and the only reason it ended is because she didn’t want to feel like she was butting into Ashley and I’s time even though I explained to her that Ashley liked hearing her voice over the phone.
No matter, though, we’re both still very excited about my going down to visit her in seventeen days (!!!). I’m curious to see how I am with her in-person without seething grossness in the middle of my head.
This computer has a shitload of music that I (re)discovered because of my relationship with Sarah, but a lot of it is stuff that I did like before we met, and the stuff that I didn’t know I’m just listening to with ears that make it mine as I am in The Present. This is Jake taking some power back, even in this relatively-slight-sort-of-way.
Did I tell this space about the bell-bottom jeans that I’ve ordered for myself? Growing up I hated wearing jeans because the material would disrupt the hairs on my legs, but I saw these somewhere (probably a music video I’ve watched recently, I’m not sure) and I’m excited to see if the “inflated” lower leg of a bell-bottom pant will be a comfortable way to get a good and durable bit of legwear. Plus they look not-of-this-time (my dad said he had a pair of them back in 1979, when my parents got married) and I am nothing if not of this time.
I’m of all time, belonging to the Universe, all of that shiz.
Do you ever lip-sing along to a song without opening your lips? Like you’re still moving them and opening your jaw but you’re just not opening your lips or using your vocal chords. I was just doing that and it made me laugh at myself a little.
