12 hours of celebrating @huehuehui, secret-adventure style: hippie church, boozy brunch, Come From Away, tequila and ceviche, piña coladas at Lula Lounge (tradition), Toronto Lights Festival, more tequila. 🥳 Happy 22nd birthday to the best friend, soulmate, and dog aunt/godmother I could ever dream of. I don’t deserve you. 💖
If I were to locate the sadness I’m feeling these days, I wouldn’t look to my heart, or gut, or brain; all of those places feel too accessible, too near the surface. I can put words to the sadnesses that live in those places. But this sadness is, like, in my bone marrow. I don’t have images or words for it. It’s so deep . . . Anyway, here’s a cute photo of my dog. 🐶
The flu knocked me out for a solid seven days, and now I could not be readier to get back to work. I’ve meal prepped and planned my outfits for the week. My apartment is clean. Cold brew is doing its thing in the fridge. I’m excited. I miss my coworkers and my kids. I miss my routine. I miss feeling whole and right and needed and wanted. How fortune that my daily life provides me with that.
The last 3.5 days were what my hurting heart needed. Missing my best friends already. 🖤
