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.

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?
Pic is of me rehearsing what a normal person at a normal time would look like
