Blurb 1/365: You know when people say something sassy to each other and then they smile/frown and look down while laughing but only in an exhale and then wave at the opposite person to stop while stomping a foot? Whenever I witness that, it makes me smile.

Blurb 1/365: Sometimes when I’m in a conversation, I realize that the person I’m speaking with and I are from completely different worlds. There are some similarities because we are human, but overall we have nothing in common and the only thing that keeps us talking is pleasantries. This doesn’t make me angry or anything, but being aware of it makes me ponder if the people this has happened with realize the same thing about me or if they believe that I am like them.
