him "you're great. don't ever die!"
me "did you say- don't ever die?" -getting choked up-
him "yeah"
me "i'll put it off as much as possible"
love.

Into my quiet time
"It’s been months since I’ve visited this space. I’ve attempted to start a
post ultimately abandoning it in favor of short bursts of thought on
Twitter or opting to just keep whatever it was I wanted to say to
myself. I’ve always prided myself on my ability to be open and
expressive but had also figured out a pretty adept method of feigning
transparency. I would give up enough to appear as though I was sharing
(and I was) but I was also keeping enough to myself to remain properly
hidden. The last few months (maybe a year) has been no different. I’ve
been thinking about coming back to this space but I didn’t know what I
could say here without spilling everything. I have a tendency to talk
too much and over share and then spend time worrying about who will read
what and use it against me or who will read what and judge the
punctuation or who will read what and read more to it than it is. The
last few days, especially, I’ve had an urge to visit this place and talk
as openly as I could without “hiding behind metaphors or similes”. I’ve
put it off again in favor of short bursts of thought on Twitter and
opting to just keep whatever it was I wanted to say to myself."
