In the 13 years you have been here it has never been anywhere but the back burner.

Shoes have always been weird for me. I’m typically a 10.5 but depending on brand or even the same brand but different line, I would bump up to 11. If I plan on wearing thicker socks, I’d go to 11 by default. Water resistant and water proof shoes, for example. Only made the mistake of buying my usual size only to find out that they are too tight a couple of times.

I’m a bit on the… husky side, so as I lose weight, there’s a chance that I could lose half a shoe size or more as fat and inflammation (from supporting an increase in weight) decrease. So those tight 10.5s might be just right if I lose 50 pounds, for example. Can’t confirm. Just something I’ve read. Seems logical l suppose.
I own too many hoodies jackets hoodies and DS games and I’m not ashamed!

I came close in 2019. In retrospect I should have just lied and said I did have a place lined up. Still can't believe the place I was looking into literally got snatched up HOURS before I was scheduled to leave for NYC. It probably wouldn't have been so bad if any of the other people I messaged actually responded.

Looks like I won't be in the Greenwich Halloween Parade this year, either. Or possibly trying to pursue a romantic relationship with…

You should maybe kinda sorta meet someone before pursuing a relationship with them. Stalking is generally frowned upon.

I wasn't talking about stalking. Right now he's my Man Crush Monday. And who can blame me? He's smart, funny and talented. Aside from being a stand up comedian he's also an artist and trained opera singer.

He's also way out of your league. Just like my man crush, Ryan Reynolds, is way out of mine.

Killed a mosquito with sanitizer (Isopropyl Alcohol 75%). Sprayed it and it instantly drops. Sprayed again to make sure its dead. :D

It's also good for cleaning Sharpie ink.

So?

Also Ryan Reynolds is straight and married.

This is pure semantics, but aren't you queer? I am too, and I don't think "man crush' works for a queer person. I always assumed it was more of a term used by straight men.
