Talking to strangers

It’s nice to remember that the world is brimming with kind people. I by no means have lengthy conversations with them, but even a joke or an observation to the store attendant makes me feel like I am the sort of person who is casual about things. It’s fun and reminds me to get outside my (sometimes claustrophobic) bubble.

More Small Talk!!!

Some of the best, most energy-filled conversations I’ve had have been with strangers at the grocery store, while in traffic, and even on customer service lines. Talk to store clerks about their weekend plans, ask the person next to you at the meat counter what they’re making for dinner, see people and be seen. It’s beautiful!!!!!!!!

Getting a coffee and going right back to bed

After I got up and showered on Friday morning, I went down to the coffee shop on my block to get breakfast. As I was on my way home, the woman walking behind me said, “Oh, you look so cozy. You look like you woke up and thought I’m gonna get myself a coffee and crawl right back into bed!”
Dear reader, that is exactly what I thought when I woke up that morning!

Referring to battery power as “Juice”

E.g. “Aw man my car is all out of juice” Potentially… “Lemme juice this sucker up real quick” (just spitballing here)
