Is there anything better/worse than seeing the man you love/loved and him being totally cool and wanting to hang out again?
Also, is there anything worse than crying in a cab?
“Imagine him as a cruel villain with a cape and a mustache and a grand, unsettling laugh. But he is not that at all. He is, in most ways, a very good and caring person who I miss very much. Smart and charming and all of that. Even now, on the very rare occasion that one of us sends the other a two-sentence email, it almost feels okay. But mostly it feels like two people who used to know one another.”

It started out as a simple “let’s file my taxes” evening. After entering all my information into the little boxes and finding that, again, I owed money….I’ve made the (sort of) decision to go back to school….again.
Is this what I really want? Do I NEED an English degree for my job? OR, is this something that I want to do for myself? To get a degree in something that I actually like and not something that I felt my parents would like me to do.
Also….I’m very, very close to paying off my student loans from 10 years ago. Great.

to make a dress with sleeves?! All I want is a simple, black dress with sleeves for my sister’s wedding in just over two weeks. (Have I mentioned this? My sister is getting married in two weeks.)
I bought a dress, but I just don’t think it’s “dressy” enough, and despite being a crazy small, crazy rushed wedding, I still feel like I’m might be under dressed.
It’s winter! Why must every dress with sleeves be for the Amish?!
Forever and ever, amen.

I have a big fashion event tomorrow after work (we are a media sponsor so we get VIP tickets) and among the many, many things that I am stressed out, my hair being straight and what I’m supposed to wear to this thing ranks high.
What does one wear to a fashion event that start right after work?
Well, at least my nails look nice.

A man sat next to me on the train this morning. It wasn’t a crowded train for a Monday, yet I could feel him pressing his legs into mine with an intense pressure. I looked up from my book (another Alice Munro short story collection…ugh, so the best ever) and was pleased to see that the thigh pressure was coming from the most beautiful man I’ve seen in a long time.
I went back to my book, he went back to reading the newspaper and pressing his leg against mine. Then I smelled him. He smelled like a combination of cologne, soap and and the very fainest hint of cigarettes.
It smelled like college. Late nights, backyards, random houses and cold air. Of standing in someone’s yard, drinking flat beer from a keg, of laughing a little too loud and a little too long. Wearing a constant combo of orange and black, sleeping until 2 p.m. and selling parking spaces on game days. Of rugby games, basketball players and football player parties. The smell of Murphy’s and Willie’s on a Saturday night, the smell of the walk home, holding the hand of the boy I loved.
The beautiful man got off the stop before me, but not without a polite smile. There was no way that he could have ever known that I wasn’t sitting on the train, but was 10 years away from that moment, trying to remember where my story began.
