I can‘t even begin to explain the dopamine hit I get when I see chimney smoke. Maybe it reminds me that there’s actually people inside, that there are other people living completely different lives that I would never know about? Maybe it’s the aesthetic? It just somehow makes me feel less alone in the world.

Walking home from work in winter fog??? And seeing the tops of bare trees almost get lost in it??? Looking up to see someone’s apartment window open in January??? Smelling a passerby‘s cigarette smoke mixed with cold humid air??? The world felt closer and why did I almost tear up.

50 degrees feels like the smell threshold, all of a sudden I can like, smell wood and dirt and cigarettes again.

First thing in the morning I open my widow, press my nose into the screen, and take a big inhale. Taking this pause to breathe reminds me to be grateful for the things we can sometimes overlook, like the gift of clean(ish) air. One of my favorite smells is that of moist summer air through a window screen. Not sure if anyone else can relate to that, but it’s something I’m looking forward to smelling during this morning ritual.

During my senior year of high school, I designed a set for a conceptual theatre production of The Sound of Music and made a white model for it in 1/4” scale. I love that model to death. When I look at it, I feel so sure that I‘m on the right career path for me.

it’s 3 am and I just had the most amazing conversation with my mom about my sexuality and what it means. I’m so grateful to have a family that not only loves and accepts me but truly wants to know about my life and experiences and wants to learn about queerness and what lgbtqia+ people experience. I came out of the conversation feeling so much better and feeling like a weight has been lifted now that I’ve been able to get things off my chest. I hope everyone is able to have someone like that in their life ❤️
