I WAS THINKING ABOUT THIS 5 MINUTES AGO

i realized that everytime i make a joke that doesn’t land i make the exact same face my dad does. like without even thinking about it, i have SO many of the same mannerisms and references and phrases my dad has. i’m truly his mini me we are almost the same person.

asking your dad if he'S REALLY DOING OKAY & WHAT HE'S INTERESTED IN THESE DAYS

This has strengthened our relationship so much and his lore is always insane. Dads always be doing the most random shit, but no one ever asks them about it. Since i've been asking my dad more about his day to day he gets so excited to tell me about all of the random things he's trying and learning. It's precious.

Realizing I'm just like my dad

We need glasses to see our phones. We have the same allergies/sensitive skin. We have hot girl stomach issues. We're anxious af. We take snacks everywhere. We're shy and introverted. We like to golf. (He's good, I'm not). We're ticklish and will fight you about it. I can go on, but I'm embarrassed by all this (just like he'd be)

Analog sunday

No screen Sundays. If I want to listen to music its CDs or radio. If I want to watch a movie, no I don’t. If I want to see a friend, I will make plans with them on Friday or Saturday to meet up. As a result, I read more, write more, and sit with questions like “did Citizen Kane‘s 50 year winning streak in the Sight and Sound critics choice survey end in 2012 or 2022? When did Stephen Merritt come out? Whats the etymology of Whitsun?“ This is something that I have practiced off and on for many years but I’ve been doing it every week since December and I love the way that it just allows me one day of true freedom and rest.

Writing down the things that bring you joy

My calendar this year has 52 of these week at a glance pages but I don’t think that way. So, I've been inspired by Ross Gay’s Book of Delighs to start recording the little moments and sensations that bring me joy throughout the day. An analog pi.fyi, if you will. heres some of what I have so far: - Waking up to the sound of my upstairs neighbor‘s footstep. It sounded nostalgic. Felt like company. - Strawberry jam - feeling tender for strangers: their lips, nail colors, their small wrists. Thinking of all the lives we hold gently. - A young girl bought an LP at the bookstore just before I left. She stroked its cover with love - Green tiles —the mint shade always makes me think of Jancie - Charlie’s little bop and punch dancing to some German language punk - lunch with Katherine, curry Brussels sprouts - small talk at the photo studio. The photographer's brother was named after their dad, stole his identity, bought jet skis.
