Expanding
4:34:32 PM



Personal space runs from 18" to four feet from your body to another person.

In NYC, that number is probably two feet from you body. That would mean that your personal space is a 13 square-foot circle around you.

So in the past number of weeks, I've learned that three of my friends are involved in "secret" relationships, not with each other, where people don't know that they're involved. Two are women, one is a man.

Why would any self-respecting person want to be with something that isn't proud to say, Yeah she's with me?

That, and premium ice cubes, is just about the stupidest thing I've ever heard of.

I say, you're entitled to your 13 square-foot circle.
I say, take up your damn space in the world - in fact take up more.
I say, if you don't think you deserve it, you don't.

Me, I'm expanding.

Premium ice cubes...what a crock...

Because people are good at rationalizing. I have a friend who has been in a series of similar situations, and she still doesn't get it.

Yeah, it gets sticky but at some point, you wake up, no?

BTW - GO BIG RED!

are they coworkers, or in some kind of professional setting together?

sorry, didn't get a pic of my plant before the flowers wilted.

Too bad about the pics - I'll put up something of Harold later.

Nope, none of them are co-workers. They are all just...odd.

Hm...I dunno. Some people are happier practicing denial. I think she might be one of them.

And one of these years, I'll make it back to Ithaca for a hockey game! I've got my fish ready!

the ice cubes are good if you travel to mexico... hopefully the hotel has a mini-freezer though.

Maybe - or maybe they just don't want to be alone. I'm not really sure.
