I did it. I approached her and quickly said we should get together some time and she responded “We should”. I walked away with mixed emotions about her response.

Anyone who knows me knows I love to read. I come from a family of readers. Seriously, I don’t know anyone in my family who doesn’t read.

I like everything in my life to be in order at all times. I keep syncing calendar lists on my phone and kindle to make sure nothing is missed.
