I wish I had friends who were free on a Tuesday evening to just shoot the shit and share a pizza with. I remember long conversations in cars with uni friends after class, those halcyon days when we didn't have so many Commitments and Schedules...

It's cooling down quite a bit now after a warm afternoon and gone all cloudy; don't entirely feel up to a walk. But I AM having that damn pizza and catching up on today's episode of OMITB after the toll of yesterday. I shall walk to work and back tomorrow instead. Done.

But first... some reading on schema therapy..

E: unrelated but DT fam, any recommendations for family friendly dinner spots in the CBD? Friend is visiting with their family from interstate, kid is ~2, mainly about vibe and not being insanely loud

It’s probably not the same but what about a phone call?

That’s than better than nothing and at least you can let it out and feel better about verbally having an outlet?

It’s definitely cooler now. The sun has gone away and the cold breeze was out. I actually felt cold again.

Go go Pizza!

People don't really seem to be into phone calls at my age! Well there's one person I could've hit up normally but she's overseas at the moment.

It certainly has gotten cool again. Was nice to whip out a summer top for the day anyway.

I’m still a phone person but yeah I understand. A lot of people around me don’t seem to have time for phone calls either and can only text back and junk.

I think it’s going to be cooler over the next few days so the warmer weather didn’t last too long this time around.

Tell me about this Salmon Pizza. Is there anything else on it?

It has bocconcini and dill and capers... But I changed my mind and went for the two large traditional pizzas and garlic bread special for $39, and just got vegetarian and marinara. Felt full pretty quickly but this means dinner for another couple of days which is great.

Very nice. That’ll make it easy for a couple of days!

This is where my social anxiety goes into overdrive and I hesitate to reach out...
