God what i wouldn’t give to have the sheer stamina and work ethic of my next door neighbor. Every morning, 8am, the hammers and drills come out. he’s putting up shelves. he’s feeding cables through walls 6 inches from my pillow. He’s putting together furniture. He’s making smoothies. He’s 74 years old. Does it piss me off? of course. But i have to admit that he is clearly also the superior being. I need The Substance but to turn me (anemic 20-something with the constitution of a consumptive Victorian child) into this absolute beast of a man
Met this same neighbor today as he was effortlessly hauling his bike up 4 flights of stairs having just finished a 20 mile bike ride and i (masked and bedraggled) explained that I’m on the tail end of a cold but venturing out as I’ve run out of food, and he was like “Aww no!! 🥺🥺 If you ever need me to pop down to the shops and do some shopping for you just let me know!!” like Steven, that is SO kind, truly, but I have to draw the line at you doing Meals on Wheels for me right now. what i actually need is for you to come with me on a Back To The Future style adventure and somehow make you my biological grandpa because my current genes are simply not pulling their weight. can you leave me your zest for life in your will, Steven. Steven please
