sure. wait. what?

A moment:

I got off work late today, so the parking lot was nearly empty by the time I made it to my car. Just as I was getting settled in the driver’s seat — Mirrors? Check. Podcast? Check. — I heard an engine roaring and voices yelling with glee. WEEEEEEEE!

I looked to my left and there it was: a car tearing through the parking lot at full speed. It was swerving along some invisible, erratic curve headed toward me so, for a moment, I thought it was going to slam into my car. Thank goodness it screeched to a stop and fumbled through a messy three-point turn before speeding off in the opposite direction.

The entire time, two teenage boys were half-hanging out of the car’s passenger side, their torsos jutting into the air. They both had curly hair, and their faces were all smiles with no sign of fucks to give.

Ahh, to be young and spectacularly stupid.

A thought:

Having something to look forward to after work helps keep stress at bay.

I felt anxious at work all day yesterday, but I didn’t carry the anxiety with me once I left the office, all because I had an activity planned for the evening. I didn’t even remember how I’d felt earlier until I sat down to write in my journal. Huh.

A feeling:

Well, other than feeling anxious at work, I also feel a little conflicted for having eaten too much for dinner. Now I’m too full to go for a run, so maybe I’ll just walk on the treadmill.

A sign:

My boss scheduled a performance review for later this week. We already had a similar discussion earlier this year, and I had already received my bonus so…what is this meeting for? I don’t know what it’s a sign of, but it sure is sus.

A concern:

See above, lol.

Outside work, I’m a wee bit concerned that I haven’t been pooping regularly in recent weeks.

A comfort:

Recently, it’s being in the pool and floating and gliding across the water’s cool, shimmering surface.

A plan:

Tonight: walk for at least 30 minutes, take a warm shower, write in my journal, publish this post, sleep.

A question:

Is this song good, or is this song good? Lol.
