my mom told me they were messages from loved ones and i always seem to stumble upon them when im down on my luck and in need of a reason to keep pushing forward
When I was 14 my dad and uncle took me to a Dave Mathews concert. My uncle bought me a hat that was $50 (too much for a hat Dave, cmon) and just now I’m realizing how much that was, especially then, to him, on top of what he must have paid for my ticket I heard before that the true use of money is for keeping promises (hence promissory note) but I think it’s true use in this post capitalist hellscape is to put smiles on ur family and friends faces
i make them with so much pickle juice and olive juice until they could potentially be confused with a salad dressing - a crush of pepper, a few drops of olive oil, im in heaven and life is so good
We met at a concert through a bunch of mutual friends and chatted for a while - we both had partners at the time so nothing came of it, but we matched on hinge a couple years later and he remember the exact conversation we had at the venue. We dated for a few months but it didn’t line up - we stayed friends and eventually were both single, doing everything together, and texting non-stop. He asked if I ever thought about us dating again and then I pretended to not be in love with him for about 3 months until I couldn’t take it anymore. We’ve been together for over a year now and he’s my best friend in the world - I love him so much and feel so grateful for the universe continuously putting us back together.
