Let’s try this again.

Things I Like:

• Recommending books to people.
• Granny panties.
• When people think the things I say are funny.
• Grilled cheese sandwiches (on rye, with American cheese) from the diner.
• Firm pillows.
• Going to the movies with Catherine.
• Knowing where I’m going.
• Buying gifts for people that I know they’ll really like.
• Recognizing actors/actresses I know on TV shows.
• Rooms with lots of windows.
• Finding people’s books at book sales/garage sales, smelling the binding, and being able to recognize whether it was glued or sewn together.

Things I Dislike:

• Humidity.
• My legs sticking to car seats because of the humidity.
• How I care too much about what other people think.
• My phone being below 50% battery.
• Being put in the middle of situations I have no control over.
• Feeling small, feeling like I don’t matter, feeling like what I have to say doesn’t matter, feeling oppressed in general.
• Going to sleep without socks on.
• Getting lost.
• Days where it’s impossible to get out of bed or even open my computer or change out of my pajamas or brush my teeth or move.
• Train delays.
• Not being able to check things in my planner off.
• Social media, a lot of the time.
