I'm starting to understand I'm kind of a weirdo because I don't mind waiting somewhere.

I'm starting to understand I'm kind of a weirdo because I don't mind waiting somewhere. You mean I can just sit here and read my book? I'm good with that.

@aspeed I am always so proud of how my comrades at the Rheumatologist are readers.

@kimlockhartga And my doctor's a reader, so we often end up talking books at appointments.

[kimlockhartga@beige.party]

@aspeed How cool is that? My former PCP was a reader (now a concierge doc) so we would talk books. I got her into Chen Chen (contemporary poet). I love that you and your doc share a common interest.

@kimlockhartga It is nice. He's more into heavy fantasy - sword and sorcery stuff - but we both like science fiction, so we can meet in the middle there. Oh, and talk comic conventions. You can just imagine the people yelling "nerds" at us.

@aspeed That's wonderful! One day, I aspire to go to a Comic Con and buy a zine from every indie creator that I can.

@kimlockhartga Oh, they're neat. If you can get in on the beginning of one, do it. Because they blossom and get bigger and bigger.

@aspeed The worst part is that if you ask "how long will I be waiting?" it gets interpreted as a passive-aggressive "HURRY UP!", not as "how many chapters will I have time to finish?"

@aspeed I really wanted to attend the Comic Con in Atlanta, but I get intimidated by driving downtown.

[aspeed@lgbtqia.space]

@kimlockhartga Ooh, ATlanta. I bet that's a big one.
