My new boss: “Everyone come to the team meeting with a surprising story about something you’ve done in the past. Something no one would expect of you!”
Me: Googling the statute of limitation for felonies in Texas

Caleb being teased whenever he calls you (MC)
Caleb is teased by his comrades whenever he gives you a call. He tries so hard to cover the phone so you won't hear their taunting whistles and laughter, followed by comments about how he carries a silly, lovestruck smile whenever he talks with you. His ears are red as an apple as he punches one of his friends on the shoulder out of flustration. He's nervous, scratching the back of his neck while lightly booting the ground as he listens to you talk about your day. He wants to see your smile so bad...
The other guys make kissy sounds as they pass by Caleb, making him crouch on the floor to avoid the sounds reaching you. It doesn't matter if he asks them to stop, is not like they are wrong anyway. Caleb is constantly talking about you, thinking about you, dreaming about you... He shuffles his hair when he hears you say you miss seeing him at the dinner table, as well as his seasoning in the food he makes for you. He mumbles that he misses you, but you can't quite get him thus you ask him to say it again.
But with a sad smile, he hides his face in the crook of his crossed arms that rest on his knees and huffs a chuckle, "That I miss it, too, pipsqueak. I'll be back and cooking for you before you know it."
He touches his chest, where underneath his uniform rests against his heart the necklace that you gave him. He holds it through his shirt and squeezes it; hoping the love and yearning he bears can reach you through it...
Still baffling to me that I made this room in my house. It’s mine. I can just go sit in it whenever. Wild.
Last week was sad for me (nothing dire or cat-related, just upsetting old work drama that resurfaced), but then today my friend Adelle was casually like “oh, I have something for you” and pulls out AN ENVELOPE OF VINTAGE CAT PHOTOS. No big deal, just my favorite thing in the world. It was the right surprise at the right moment to make everything better. 💕 If you are on instagram you can follow her antique store at https://www.instagram.com/bargecanalmarket/.
Don’t do something permanently stupid just because you’re temporarily upset.
