VERIFIED
UNHELPFUL

PREVIOUSLY, ON YOUR DECLINE

  1. You "don't do small talk". You also don't do big talk, phone calls, emails…
  2. You say "it's not that deep" a lot. Your Notes app has 300 entries…
  3. They say sweat is weakness leaving the body. Yours has decided to stay.
  4. You're not getting older. You're getting closer. That's worse.
  5. Not all who wander are lost. You are. The map gave up.
  6. Parenting is ten percent love and ninety percent asking where the other shoe is.…
  7. You film "Sunday reset" videos. By Tuesday your room has reset itself, to Saturday.
