the dessert i didn’t have

good poem, “the dessert i didn’t have” by brenda shaughnessy

good things

• pina coladas
• pina coladas drunk while floating in a pool
• teddy and frankie chasing the ball together
• my new “dream wife” tee shirt
• cookie dough in the freezer
• all the besties in all the land
• the idea of this place
• finishing a very very bad book (scorched grace — theoretically fun concept, but completely dumb execution) and getting to start a new book
• speaking of good books — the slough house series
• these two photos, my extreme happy place

new addition

• what will i do when basketball ends
• how do i deal with this new strange phase of my life with an ill parent
• when do i get to get a manicure and a haircut and triple massages
