I was texting back and forth with a guy selling a space heater online. I then started texting with a friend about the weird things we do in the doctor’s exam room while waiting for the doctor to come in. I texted “I always hide my bra and underwear under my clothes when I see my gynecologist.” I received a text back “that’s nice but are you still interested in the space heater?”

I like to write strongly worded emails to people and not send them. They get UGLY and it’s extremely therapeutic. I often times edit them over and over until my rage turns level headed. Do it. I highly recommend it. Except don’t put their actual email address in, or don’t save them for ever and ever. Or at the very minimum don’t accidentally pocket email your last 20 drafts to unsuspecting supervisors, CEOs, colleagues, parents, preachers, and friends.

When my wife found out she was pregnant, I snapped a pic of the ultrasound and was going to send it to my sister. Unfortunately I fat fingered it and clicked the wrong name.
