    My kid is turning 16 in a couple of months.

    At what age am I permitted to have a midlife crisis?

    I wish I had known when I was younger that the world is an interesting place & I wish I had chosen an interesting field of study & I hope there are still interesting things in the future for me

    Your story isn't over. Think of all the delicious foods you're yet to eat, all the drinks you haven't tried yet, places you haven't seen, the smells of street food and town squares in far away climbs. So many good times yet to come.

    I would like someone to teach me math. Can you do that?

    Sadly not. Electronics yes, genetics kinda. Turns out I'm only middling at maths, sorry.

    Wasn't there a maths teacher on here before?

    Tales from the dating app part 3:

    I don't know *kitten* about Harry Potter, and apparently my knowledge of the house names isn't up to scratch.

    I only knew Griffinpaw and Applepuff.

    Got blocked.

    Congrats. The benefits of your colleagues telling everybody you were once a figure skater :)

    ETA: This isn't intended to take away from the good job you're doing.

    Actually a friend who is a musician came up with a reason why people find this fascinating. It's like I'm part of a special society that many people will never get to be a part of.

    Really I know the person who head hunted me wants my connections from my skating club 🤣

    Invite me and I’ll fake a heart attack. Then you can “bring me to the hospital”

    My meds are making me so sleepy, but I can't turn in just yet. I'm going to have to duck tape my eyes open.
    Now, where's that tape?
