so that's my speel

im outside

i can hear kids laughing

a world one 3/4th an inch better

can cascade into something even so much better

& im not saying dont have em

more fix the cost of living issue with town halls & hard boundaries

i get that i Do Not Get

how insane cost of living is re: work life balance re: kids

grow up fast enough & then dont want you around by highschool

cos dont have them then

is how i feel

why have kids

to have lonely kids who miss you

& if i ever had any kids

id die if i ever accidentally overheard them tell their friend or even a stuffed animal that i was always busy & always working & always gone

i really wanna have irl friends again

i really wanna hang out more

i really do

like if the work is your passion

that's so cool

but then, what else can you fit? ya know? like what other room is there for other stuff good stuff life stuff hanging out stuff

balance prolly

is key or whatever

gotta de-holic all the holics

rob's daughter is already getting so mad at how much he works

i was so mad at my dad

the workaholic thing is as bad as being an alcoholic

life flies by

miss so much

integrate very little

lowkey semi retirement breather whatever the ef i can manage

hopefully, as of today, so much of that is at a close

many plates a lot in motion a lot of multitasking

~however~

a fair bit has been going on

there's something to be said

& it isnt good

about anything ever being hard relationally

very normal

very easy

i get thats woman to woman

im just sayin

like naya found my writing, msged, & then just called while i was at jfk photographing the muslim ban protest
