Srsly. It works. And it’s guaranteed.

I started with the “no thank you card.” Just by having it, I need it less. I go into situations mindful that patience may be necessary. I have the card; I am prepared.

I am supposed to arrive at the wedding rehearsal at 4 p.m. I planned on arriving 15–20 minutes early. Because I don’t like being late. However, I took a wrong turn. At the intersection of the I-5 South and the I-405 South, I went the wrong way. Now, I’ll have to turn around in a mile and a half and

No words. No words.
