5am, kitchen, Brooklyn.
Writing poetry, drinking coffee.
Leftover aubergine
Listening to Helen Garner’s diaries on audiobook.
About to leave for the airport.
Florida-bound.
My computer is asking for a software update.
My phone is asking for app updates.
My life is running on the latest (and greatest) version.
Work is in a good place.
The podcast is popping off.
I have enough money in the bank.
To pay for all my daughter's acting classes.
Fly back and forth to the Sunshine State.
And Los Angeles next month.
I wish we could 'Favorite' days, moments.
These are the years I will look back on most fondly.
Better than my 20s.
Much better than my 30s.
40s is where it's at.
Or maybe it's where I am at.
More coffee, order the Uber.
