30th birthday mix CD

For fun, I’m putting together a 30th birthday mix CD. It includes some fun songs, some reflective songs — all stuff I think will be good just to listen to on Tuesday and ponder. For example, I’ve got: Happy Birthday

I have just shy of nine days left to be a twenty-something. What should I do with myself?

Coming out to my cat

I just woke up from a dream in which I was coming out to my cat, Blackberry. Halfway through telling Blackberry I’m bi (“so that means I sleep with both men and women” — I dream of not-very-good definitions of

Random countdown & countup

Milestones upcoming and past. This helps me stay aware of what a given period of time feels like. Just under a month until I see my dad, maybe for the last time. One month exactly until I turn 30. Two

Paid for by hard work

My coworker K is having major remodeling done to his house. I’m trying to pay down my debts. We’re both contractors working on a project with unrealistic deadlines, and we have been given the freedom to bill as many hours
