Ten.Two Thousand, Two Hundred & Fifty-Two

  1. Breathing into the depths.

  2. It's a jeans and a blazer kind of day.

  3. But these Dot’s pretzels, though.

  4. Fantasy Football group chats. And, so it begins.

  5. He orders a milkshake, and I don’t say anything because it’s summer, and it’s just him, and why not? The gentleman behind the bar fills my glass a little above the line. I think of it as a loyalty perk.

  6. I think about how I describe it as a Freudian slip. How I said, “You guys,” and how he said, “You mean, ‘we.’”

  7. Why am I here?

  8. I tell her that I believe in signs and this was one.

  9. No. It’s just me. I’m the problem. I’m feeling my own existential angst.

  10. The algorithm didn’t like that one.
