4:59 p.m.
I’m in a coffeeshop working on my own. The rest of the place is full of Filipinos in groups, talking and laughing. There’s a traveler-type girl sitting on her own to my left… (traveler-type giveaways? She’s alone. She’s reading a book…. Okay, really it’s because she’s white). I’m tempted to see if she wants to grab dinner later – it’s Saturday night and I’m going to have dinner alone - but I can see that her book has the word “sin” in it, so first I google it to make sure she isn’t reading some kind of religions tome.
It isn’t a religious book, but the exercise reminds me of all the things that could be painful about a whole dinner with a stranger and I decide to go to the gym instead.
