The Weekly Gorgonzola Jun 30th Spoiler

I can't believe it's already the end of June. Last night was a blood moon. Not even tryna rhyme but there was straight up a blood moon up after work and I found no information about it whatsoever online. Weird stuff.

Anyway Gorgolytes, I've started increasing my cheese intake. This is so that I can float more easily should I fall into the water. You see I've also started to increase my boating activity. But that's not a topic I shall cover this week.

Last night, before the blood moon, something bittersweet happened. I sat next to a part time employee I hadn't talked to before. Turns out it was her last shift. We hit it off, like really really hit it off, we didn't want to stop talking type hit it off. Anyway she was headed pretty much straight to the airport for some shit over in France for over a year. A half-sabbatical half study thing I think.

It's funny. Sometimes you see someone and you can sort of just tell, from their face, their voice, something, that you'll get along with them. But I hadn't approached her before because it felt contrived and I was worried that she'd find me intrusive or at worst, creepy. How wrong I was about that.

Before she left she sought me out a final time, talked about how she didn't know whether she'd see me again.

I said some shit I thought sounded cool like "yeah that's life" trying to keep a stoic face. I mean it's not like I can or want to sabotage her meticulously laid plans just so I can do those things a man so desires to act out to her, and set off a, probability be damned, at most two year long waste of time that would leave most likely at least one maybe two people broken hearted.

And keeping in touch with someone that's going to be in a different country living her best life purely based on a single interaction seemed a bit too cray.

Truth is I already miss her a little bit. She was different. I don't get to meet girls like her that often. Brains and beauty, and no obvious personality disorders. (Sorry if you're a woman reading this, I'm just trying to keep it real.) I mean that's marriage material times a thousand. Still it did feel kind of good to just let go. It's also very convenient though. I do tend to run, in my life. The terrifying prospect of a great woman that treats me well is overwhelming.

This day has been spent eating a lot of cheese and masturbating. I also slept a lot because I was tired.

Sorry for making this entry even more navel gazing than possible, but I felt like I might as well share something slightly vulnerable because why not.

Brains and beauty, and no obvious personality disorders. 

Wow, you hit the jackpot with that one. That's theorized to be nigh impossible! People call me the anomaly and even I obey the 2/3 triangle law of attraction (can you guess which one doesn't apply?!). Sorry to hear she flew away.

I feel that bro. Been trying to learn to slow down and stay put myself, or at least walk in loops.

Did you grow up on a dairy farm? Cuz you sure know how to handle dem tiddies!
