— flakes

Even if we understand flaking totally sucks, we’ve created a sense of normalcy.

The one way to stop the flaking cycle that’s become our social reality? By showing up to brunch on time, by arriving to a friend’s house when we say we will and by making it a goal to stop sending “NBD” texts in lieu of real apologies.

And if that doesn’t work, let’s talk about it over a drink sometime. Just let me know when you’re free.
