memorizing poems

Lately, I've been spending my time on the train repeating poems over and over until I know them rather well. Then I come home, and I repeat them over and over to my partner until I know it by heart and they know it rather well. Now, we're both walking around playing a game called poetry juke-box. There's seldom a winner and only a sliver of pride on the line each time we play.

Hosting dinner parties

inviting all your friends into your house then eating dinner with them and then playing cards? Idyllic! A hard-to-come-down-from HIGH you can’t get anywhere else

Having your internal monologue be taken over by recS

Can’t stop saying things like ““ordering an americano and a chocolatine for breakfast”” ““”washing your hands”“” ”””opting to not wear a scarf today because it’s 2 degrees””” to myself
I swear it’s like a CBT technique but better

Recognizing faces on the daily commute

The white haired man reading tomes on my bus, where do you go once you get into the metro station?
Do you too see our friend with the scraggly beard in the Russian hat and floor length trench coat?
the Father and I get off at the same stop, but the daughter stays on after muttering over a response to an “i love you” she probably gets daily
