I ate lunch at IKEA and I feel good physically if not spiritually.

I think I just saw a porcupine in my yard, and I needed to tell someone about it so I chose you.

I believe there’s a market niche for plum-flavored cola.

One idea of heaven is a reunion with all my old t-shirts, and they don’t have holes or pit stains, and they fit me in my current size, and there’s enough pizza and pop for all of us.

The world is so weird lately that I have to wonder if all us libs and literate people will be back on Twitter someday, and it will be called Twitter again, and I’ll be back to having 75 followers but none will be bots, and also my old t-shirts will return but without any pit stains.

How old and out of touch am I? me to an undergrad: “Hey, cool shirt! I love the Grateful Dead! Man, I was listening to this one show from …” the undergrad, walking away: “Yeah, I just like skeletons.”

I don’t know how to use the broiler. I always thought that was storage. I can’t be alone in feeling this way.

First week of the semester and I spilled coffee in my office three damn times.

Enough with all these Beatles movies. When do we get our Monkees biopic?

I think $29 is too much to pay for a hardcover novel. But at least when I pay that much, I’m sure to read the dang thing rather than let it molder on the TBR pile. #amreading #writingcommunity #books

I’m going to stop buying shirts from the bands I love (which never fit), and instead find some nice-fitting secondhand shirts and just start liking those bands. #shirt #shirts

What’s your oldest t-shirt, and why have you kept it? This bad boy is circa 2007, and it’s worn down so much that it’s too comfortable to give up and any secondhand place would throw it out anyway. #shirt #fashion #vintage #clothing #southdakota #pitstains
Ratty old t-shirt with Mount Rushmore on it. It says, “South Dakota, don’t take it for granite.” That’s a funny joke.

The world might not believe this, but I’m once again dissatisfied with the sizing of a shirt I bought online. #shirt

A little advice: when reading a novel, set your phone across the room. (Case in point: I was reading thirty minutes ago, but now I’m embarrassingly caught up on word games and sports scores.)

I dreamed last night that there were more tuna packets in the pantry than there really are, and I consider myself a “creative person.” #writingcommunity
