this is a totally inward and wordless thing i find myself doing on transit (in periods when i am confused about myself). An anticipatory heterosexual practice and preparatory exercise in terms of returning to new york. where there is daily opportunity for this. I am recommending this while in the bus bathroom which is a mobile and speckled portapotty essentially. This “passes the time”

It’s sweet and sentimental—you’re up, ruminating and thinking just like when your taking yourself with a good walk, but with less physical activity.
++ you can reflect with a good song and hear the sound of the bus moving, in transit.

greeting each other with a simple smile 🙂and then chilling in companionable silence for the duration of your ride. you’re both on your own separate journeys, but for a brief period of time, you’ve got some nice company to enjoy the trip

(boyfriend is a gender neutral term obvs)
bus boyfriend is an alternative for those of us not fortunate enough to have a work crush. A bus boyfriend is someone within (or beyond 💋) your age bracket who does the same morning commute as you. if you don’t find anyone on your commute intriguing I’m sorry but you’ll have to be more open minded. People can become hotter or uglier in your mind if you’re willing to pay attention — either make for exciting fantasies.
anyways, see you tomorrow at 7:24am xoxo
If you drive a car to work, use this time to become your own crush.

When i have no plan for the day i will often remain in my room and become itchy and depressed. today i relearned that no plan is necessary to just force an exit first, get a coffee etc., and that then by way of the indoor=>outdoor state change plans or loose intentions can solidify. just one initial action can be parlayed into a series of other meaningful actions

Delicious burritos and tortas, also there are juices
I recommend the brisket burrito
It is very beautiful inside, no 2d image can capture the optical lushness and scale of the real environment but here is a photograph that conveys at least partial representation of the colors and menu density (the entire restaurant looks like this)

you can see on one side the sunset in one large beautiful glow backing the city image , and on the other side you can also see the apposite roseate light in lozenges against the beams of the bridge. looking back and forth is pleasant, and easy if seated perpendicular to the walls of the train. and soon after getting off the train to meet adrian in chinatown you will no longer remember seeing this and being happy until the next morning when on the N train slightly post-sunrise reforming the association from a similar experience on the same bridge
