We are kindred souls. One thing that really pisses the uptight crowd off: I'm a guy who wears flip flops everywhere. Can sometimes see the literal disgust on the face of these bald old men in their suits marching to Coach past my flip flop-wearing self enjoying wine in seat 2A 🍾💯

I usually fly First/Business, and I wear joggers and sneakers when I fly. Screw being uncomfortable, especially international flights.

I felt like a walking zombie during thanksgiving, barely eating and barely talking. My family is small and I told them ahead of time my relationship ended. I focused on my niece and nephews, cried when I wanted to and slept from 8pm-noon for the last 5 days. Showered once or twice. That’s the best I could do and that’s OK right now. I’m back in my apartment, just trying to take it one day at a time, and not re read his texts too much. My birthday is Thursday 🙄
