Purely Gratuitous

Purely Gratuitous

I went to a nerdy craft show. Thought I’d dress up and be cute.

Also I’ve been playing with this app that let’s me add fun filters and overlays.

Life as of late has been simple.

I moved into a new  apartment with a good friend. We’re enjoying it. Today we planned the housewarming.

I hurt my knee recently. I was jogging. I stepped wrong somewhere. I have a possible meniscus tear. I’ll need physical therapy that I haven’t signed up for.

My mornings are filled with poetry and  melancholy. It’s fall. That’s what I tell myself.

I am lonely is the reality.

I fear that my youth is fading and soon no one will want me.

I get scared that my body isn’t appealing and so no one will want me.

But I pretend I am not filled with these fears.

  1. The app is cool. I hope you are liking the new place. Someone is going to want you completely for every bit of you – and be lucky if you want them back. peace to you

            1. ❀ thank you. Some days, I feel like I’m completely invisible. I like that you would’ve noticed me. And no, I’ve never been bothered by being called a girl. I am a girl, I am a woman. But if I’m ever called a girl and that person’s goal is to belittle then there is a price to pay. And I forgot. πŸ˜₯ I will call at lunch

  2. I’ve learned more about PT this year than I ever wanted to know, thanks to my wife’s broken wrist and now a frozen shoulder. I hope they can help you recover quickly.

    I’m sure there are decent guys who would be delighted with someone just like you. You’re funny and sensitive and intelligent and creative and attractive. I’ll pray that the right guy comes along. Don’t settle, whatever you do. You’ll know him when you see him.
