100 words | friday breakfast

I’ve come to the realization that I don’t write enough. Since there is 100 days to the end of the year, I’ve resolved to remedy this by writing 100 words each day for the next 100 days. No structure, no themes, no set topics. And with that, here’s the first one…

All this wrap up into a special commute once a week, and yes, it is capped off by the knowledge that on fridays, someone brings in breakfast for the group. Today’s menu: breakfast sandwiches and orange juice. Life is good.
