I’m not talking just in the same city, I mean literally as close as possible. in the same neighborhood, on the same block, even in the same building. if you actually like each other you should be able to handle the proximity, look at Kramer and Jerry. however more realistically, just sharing the same corner bar is powerful, powerful thing.
one of my best friends just moved back to mtl and she lives a 5 minutes walk away, and nothing makes me happier than us being able to see each other most days! even just for 30 minutes to grab coffee!! feels like we live in the same small village :)
want to live in a sitcom? start hanging out with your neighbors! invite them to dinner! make a standing happy hour at the mediocre bar on your block! text them neighborhood gossip! ask them to water your plants in exchange for little souvenirs when you travel! be the Kramer, be the Phoebe, just have fun with it!
a balance between relaxed and professional. go oversized, be comfortable, and convince your boss you care with a collar but keep all the comforts of the hoodie everyone has noticed you‘ve worn 3 days in a row
it’s kind of in the name but aggressively drinkable, served in a liter bottle, well priced, great chilled. bring it to a party, drink it yourself, it’s a wine you can lean on when a seltzer sounds gross, and liquor sounds worse
