Looking at my email, I’m smiling ear to ear seeing the completed virtual contract for my third account. A dentist of all people. Maybe my newfound knowledge of fangs really left an impression on him. Either way, I have to tell Brandon.
Taylor
Guess who signed a contract with me?
Brandon
I hope it’s the sensory deprivation group so you can hook me up.
Taylor
No. They said I was too expensive. Any other guesses?
Brandon
I don’t know, you’ve been having so many meetings. Maybe the dental office? You seemed really excited about that one.
Taylor
That is correct! And selfishly great since I don’t have dental insurance.
Brandon
You should get that.
Taylor
I’m poor.
Brandon
Maybe find more accounts for things you need lol. One more to go.
Taylor
You better be prepared to drop what you’re doing when the next contract comes in.
Brandon
Smiling, I agree. This is the longest I’ve ever gone without sex in years. It’s been good to hyper focus on my business and clients.
Very mature. Very responsible.
With four clients, I can outsource some of the time-suck stuff that is super important, which will help me have better work life balance.

“I need a drink,” Gwen says, tossing her phone into the couch, wearing a baggy T-shirt over bike shorts.
Morgan and I are sitting on the couch in front of the TV in loungewear, both half-watching a reality show. We look at her and then at each other. We all are eating variations of girl dinner in our living room. Mine is strawberries, nuts, and popcorn. Gwen’s is a form of trail mix that involves Cheetos, and Morgan is juicing, aka starving.
My phone lights up.
