Some I’ll do soon, some later, some never, some only sound good in theory.
Going to a party - like show up whenever, eat, make the rounds, eat, make the rounds - a normal fucking backyard party where no one tells me how much sanitizing they’ve done. One where I fear a line for the bathroom because I have stopped to talk to too many people on the way there.
Throwing a party, making a bunch of food I won't eat because I made it, and only inviting people who know to help themselves to everything and do whatever because those are the only people I still have around in this life that Id invite to a party anyway
Winning the lottery
Laying down at 3 every day
Going swimming in the ocean
Boarding a plane
Planning a trip
Talking to Stevie Nicks on the phone
Visiting people
Never having to donate to another Go Fund Me for someone's medical care or to ensure they have housing or food because I live in a country that will not let anyone die, live in the streets, or starve over lack of money
Sitting in a circle on the beach with framily
Having a month where there’s not a new natural disaster or humanitarian catastrophe and actually addressing some of the persistent human crises we’ve let go too too far for too long in this country
Painting all of my rooms except someone else cleans up after my messy painting
Eating at a restaurant once a day every day for a month and doing no dishes
Buying a lot of Boy Smells candles
Feeling the warmth of the sun on my bare arms because it’s pleasant enough to sit on the porch in a t-shirt
Getting rid of all the shit I don’t use
Returning to my former mental me instead of the unpredictable coronaland headspace. Also truly being totally fine not pandemic fine. I don’t want a return to a lot of things but I want a return to those.
Reading the afternoons away
Nuking the Senate filibuster myself
Never thinking about what to make for dinner again
Burning all of my masks except the few I'm keeping when this is over for any future illness needs
You?
