Day 50/365
No, the title of this piece is not some sort of challenge to my sexuality. Sorry, ladies!
My daily writing journey has wound its way through 50 different reflections in the past 50 days now, and there are still hundreds of these left before I'm done.
WHAT HAVE I GOTTEN MYSELF INTO?!
I tell my partner Andy how I'm doing from time to time, and on at least two occasions now he's suggested, "Why don't you just skip a day or two?"
Whenever he says something like this, I usually look at him as if a giant rabbit has just crawled out of his ear. I thinking about saying, "Get behind me, you Satan!" but usually I just opt for something lighter like, "No, I can't stop now!" He rolls his eyes at me, and gives me the Marge Simpsonesque, "Okaaayyy". You know the one. Whenever Homer says he's gonna do something crazy, but Marge wants to be supportive anyway? Yeah, that's Andy's completely understandable reaction to me in this situation!
What I have decided though is, some entries can be shorter. I don't need to go on as long as I usually do (even though I still think they're pretty short). But for the sake of my brain, and to give myself just a little break, I choose to celebrate this 50th entry by keeping this one short, and stopping... right... here! :)
