My friend, Charlie, was amazed at several things: that my place was “homey,” that I have a lot of books, and that I can cook.
Of course, he knows the latter because I have shared my spaghetti and tacos with him! I forgot to tell him the rug is the one I got out of the dumpster in Tucson... You’d never know it now, though.
I gained again, but that was expected. Maybe this is the week when I’ll pull myself together!
