This catchup is about rare, strange, and special things that come about once in a lifetime, like this catchup and oxford commas. It’s also about other rare things I know about, like beauty, love, and your weekend. I know about beauty from when I looked in the mirror for the first time. I thought, “I need a word to describe the opposite of what I am seeing.” I learned about love when I looked up the word “lope” in the dictionary while writing a diary entry about when I saw a tall, thin dog running. Life is mysterious and fun that way. I learned about your weekend by asking, “How was your weekend?”

“Mid-week weekend was great! Actual weekend was a bust.”

“Confusing but when isn’t my life confusing?”

“Like, filled with epiphanies”

Wow. Let me just say, life is mysterious and fun that way. Time for me to retreat to my library locker. (Yes, I live there. No, you can’t leave your shoes on if you come in.) GO DO.
