A social media friend group turned friendly gathering earlier this month when @jeanettepizzurro (Jette), @Rasta (Rasta), and I (Brian) met up to hang out. It was a great time with great friends and a bit surreal actually spending an evening telling stories and laughing together in person.
👥 What I have to say about #today? Thank whatever powers there be for good friends who show up with large bottles of Tanqueray and encourage hours of ranting when you're at the end of your mental string.
Look out for your friends, folks. These are trying times and lots of people out there are NOT okay. Just sayin.
Here's the conundrum....
I am not fond of #Facebook as a platform, but I love my #friends.
This 100 is only part of all who have messaged me on my #Birthday so far.
An Emily Dickinson poem my Pops had hanging in his woodshop is now a tribute to my bird Fren, Tenshi.
Tenshi went over the Rainbow Bridge last night. He and I had been Frens for almost 10 years.
He would voice my frustrations with automated phone systems. He would chime in on conversations, sing with other birds outside, and when I would leave, before closing the door I’d say, “You’re in charge, Tenshi.”
