Things that I hadn’t thought about in a while. I didn’t even get up to get a beer or coffee- I went through the whole thing in one sitting. Noticed I had the same CD on repeat. But maybe it won’t be so bad, the online dating stuff.
After it was over, I had a cup of hot chocolate and rested. I looked outside. I could see the stars hole-punching the sky. Now I have to see what it all means. At least filling out the questionnaire isn’t so bad.
