Day 10 of my 30-day writing challenge. I took a long nap this afternoon, walked the dog in the forest, before finding things to clean in the house. Oh wait, my atomic essay…

I. MUST. SHOW. UP.

Here’s what’s on my mind, right this second:

👀 I don’t like using the title case.

It feels like a stiff college essay meant to please a college professor. Does anyone feel the same?

☕️ Coffee time is sacred.

I make my morning brew in a Bialetti pot. I sip café black and sugar-free. The bigger the mug, the better. I sit quietly. How can a simple moment feel so perfect?

📈 As of today, I have 12K Twitter profile views.

What does that even mean? I don’t know. I only started posting regularly about 10 days ago. Before that, I tweeted “Hey Twitter!” for the whole of 2020.

I guess yay #Ship30for30 and let’s pop the champagne? Ooh, this reminds me…

🍸 How can I politely tell people to stop calling sparkling wine champagne?
