Hello, Sternal Journalists!
This week, I quit my job (well, I quit a few weeks ago, but had my last day this week!) and spent time with dear friends new and old. I have so much to say about those things and no time to say them in, so instead—three haikus that are tangentially related to my headspace and/or week.
That’s how it all tastes like that; and it’s Odwalla?!
The lemon-lime juice
at Chipotle is used in
rice, guac, margs, beans, chips
Holy shit, killer new old word
Whim-whim is a great
old word for “fanciful thing,”
and birthed whimsy; nice!
Texts I got about Space Jam 2, which I haven’t seen yet
“Iredeemable"
“… wasn’t even memeable”
“and … the rap battle”
Recommendations
The Mole. TV Show. This 2001 reality show hosted by pre-CNN Anderson Cooper just got suggested to me on Netflix. I was obsessed as a child and might write more in the future, but I think it’s cool to watch reality shows from before average people knew how to be on camera.
How Coffin Flop’s Coffins Got Flopped. Article. If you’re an I Think You Should Leave Fan, this article about the practical effects and stuntwork that went into making the Coffin Flop sketch so damn funny is a must-read. Do it now!
Water. Drink. It’s so good. Use the time you saved with the brevity of this SternJourn to go prep a glass for yourself and chug it on down!
What are you waiting for?
Much love!
