reaching new heights of civility
landline phone rings. in the middle of the day (which means it’s not anyone i know). against my better judgement, i answer it.
me: hello?
telemarketer: (sounding rushed, lots of background noise) can i speak to the homeowner?
me: i’m sorry, we rent.
telemarketer: well that’s no good to me, then. **click**

anywhoo, we’re off to istanbul for a long weekend tomorrow, back on monday. people keep asking me if i’m excited – which i guess i am, just in a very low-key way. weirdly, ever since getting back from our trip, i don’t really think i get “excited” about going new places anymore! i mean, i love travelling, and it will be hella cool for sure – i just haven’t really thought too far ahead, and i don’t really know what to expect, so i haven’t gotten all worked up about it.
see you next week!
