• I needed to learn that Helplessness Blues is an album by Fleet Foxes because here I thought the girl next to me on the plane was listening to a playlist titled ‘Helplessness Blues’ while I bopped along to my own ‘Good Vibes’ playlist.

• I needed for my friend to say the following about my husband after confiding something in me:

“You can tell Eric. Of a million people, I’m pretty sure he’d be the least likely in that bunch to tell someone else.”

And she’s right.

And he’s one in a million in more ways than this one. 😊

• I needed to literally run into my friend when walking out of the airport.
  • And for her to come bearing bison gifts for me despite not knowing that we’d run into each other.
    • And for her Colorado Gold Rush 50K Ultra metrics / 31.65 mile run to read SHORT JOG. 🤣🤯
      • And I’ve mentioned her before (here) to which she needed to call me out by comically responding, “Never thought I’d be so honored to be part of a post titled, Useless Cun+.”
        • And you need to read the post before deciding if you are offended.

• I needed to buy this for myself at the Death Valley National Park Visitor Center because I 💯 agree with all of the advice (except maybe knowing when to settle because I don’t do that very well at all):

• Just a few days after buying the above bookmark, and realizing that I appreciate having a low profile to the extent that I have a low profile, I need not wonder if my low profile to the extent that I have a low profile is about to blow up in the form of a soon to air reality TV show (see Flash because that’s me).

But, whether my profile blows up or not, I need the support of one of my best friends in the form of slolson5. ⬅️ ↖️ You’re the best; No One Wins Alone! 🧡

• I needed for the post that you are reading to not be a day late because I was in a funk.
  • But, who’s counting?
    • The followers that I do not have?
  • And, white lie confession here because I don’t even white lie…I am going to backdate the post to Tuesday so no one will ever know (unless you read the fine print).

• I needed for my nephew to score his first touchdown for powerhouse Iowa Western! 👏
  • I needed for his touchdown to not be called back because of penalty.

• I need to be the bodybagger here and there to even out the number of times that I’ve been bodybagged:

• I needed for Mo ⬆️, bodybags or no, to have moved to town from ☀️ CA because the kid senior (per PPA status that I am also nearing) has talent.
  • But, maybe for his first exposure to snow to not be more than a foot of it! ❄️

And every school age child in Iowa needed for the blizzard to not fall between 11 PM Friday and 6 AM Sunday. 😆

• I need to wrap up here because I still have more than 40 hours of Stranger Things to watch.

I appreciate your readership; I need the validation as writer. 😉

Sincerely,

K.J. Sculling
