Friend News: September

Standback & Standby Folks!

It's almost October so you know what that means!

SEPTEMBER FRIENDS NEWSLETTER!

Why you're getting this:

This is my friends newsletter. I send it to people I've met recently, my contacts on LinkedIn, and friends I want to keep in touch with.

If you don't want it, you can click: UNSUBSCRIBE, which is a very 2020 thing to do. What’s way cooler is to share it.

In this issue:

• Fake followup

• Recap

• What I’m watching

• What’s my snack?

“The true man is revealed in difficult times. So when trouble comes, think of yourself as a wrestler whom God, like a trainer, has paired with a tough young buck. For what purpose? To turn you into Olympic-class material.” - Epictetus

Fake Followup

A small bit of fake follow up. The ice cream featured in last months What’s My Snack? 🍦 from Cool Haus was dairy-free. So go crazy kids! It's never too cold for ice cream.

Recap

📅 It's been 208 days of working from home(WFH). September and I are not on good terms. I typically don’t have grudges on gregorian calendar months but in this case, boo on September.

Since my last fruit pie fueled (lemon) communique I have:

• Lost my mind while trapped indoors in extreme heat because of poor air quality

• Put over 50 miles on my Onewheel Pint (sprained both knees)

• Devoured all current Black Panther Trade Paperbacks

• Survived the 1 year anniversary of Kristen’s death

• Taken a trip to the Oregon Coast

• Upgraded to 17 plants

Before the smoke eff’d up my only source of peace, the outdoors, I had fun onewheelin’ all over. Discovery Park, Marymoor Park where I saw a poor old woman take an over the handlebars header dismount! She was ok, she told a joke.

A guy walks into a bar, orders a Corona and a hurricane.

The bartender says that’ll be 2020.

I got to spend quality time with EL, AW, SC, JG, HM, RC, LJ, ME, and DM, which makes it kind of a record-breaking month for in-person friend time. <3

What I'm watching

Raised by Wolves
A new original series on HBO Max, this is a little bit Westworld, a little bit ALIEN.
The first two episodes are directed by Ridley Scott who I love.
Jess describes it as a "Dark Sci-Fi thriller with religious undertones"
I'll just say. "It good. Watch"

What I'm eating

Big Franks & Ellenos pumpkin pie yogurt.

Don’t judge me.

Question for the room

If you woke up and knew the world was going to end tomorrow, would you make your bed?
