days with back to back meetings and errands used to exhaust me from the jump— my anxiety would spike before even leaving the house. the list felt like it would always grow longer and i’d get easily overwhelmed by the schedule. today could’ve been like that if i was still the same person but im not so with 30 minutes to get ready i ran to caliber collision for an assessment on my wrecked car… i picked up a rental for the week and rushed home for lunch and a nap before meeting with my friend at the library. we whole heartedly drew each other where i felt the eye contact was intimate and it gave me butterflies. we spent 3 or so hours together drawing and talking and dreaming. I was late to meet with the art society but they love me anyways so once gathered, we wheat-pasted our event posters around the arts district. daringly, rebelliously, unapologetically we gooped our glue with pride next to the just-as-proud graffiti writers. Since then— everyone went home as we prepare for rain, but i stayed outside for a beer and some solitude. Feeling accomplished, ready to rest, cheers to logging back into this app after 5 years. thx erin<3
