Fortnight

fortnight is a unit of time equal to 14 days (2 weeks). The word derives from the Old English meaning “fourteen nights”. Some wages and salaries are paid on a fortnightly basis; however in North America it is far more common to use the term biweekly.

If I had a registry at this point in my life, I would want:

A hammock

A pair of Yeezys

Season tickets to the Yankees (Legends Seats)

A dinner date with Emily Ratajkowski

A ticket to next year’s Met Gala (and an outfit)

One million blog followers

World peace

Unlimited Hinge likes for a year

Some of those little socks that stay hidden

A big cactus for my room

A Peleton bike

A donation to my registry GoFundMe page

Walk It Like I Talk It

I went to run a few errands on Monday night. I ended up going on a three hour walk through Central Park on my lonesome. I did a lot of thinking.

But it wasn’t critical thinking at all. I tried keeping it very simple:

  1. Which direction do I want to turn?
  2. What song do I want to listen to?

While I didn’t accomplish much in terms of figuring out life plans, I worked on making instinctual, nonessential decisions based on what made me happy at that exact moment.

When I typically walk, I tend to think a lot about which way gets me to my destination quickest, what people think about when they look at me, which album/podcast should I listen to, and what am I going to do afterwards? This instance, I did not have any regard for the direction I walked. I listened to every song that piqued a smile. I sang and danced and bobbed my head with no regard for the passerby’s. I didn’t think about anything beyond the moment I was stuck in.

It was refreshing.

I also saw a raccoon trying to catch a turtle in the water so that was pretty dope.

I was trying to post the video which was much clearer and cuter, but I needed the more expensive WordPress plan in order to post videos. So this screenshot of the video will have to do because I am NOT spending any more money on this stupid blog. Sorry!
