Opened the window and just stood there, addressing the void
Not a joke tonight, which felt weird at first. I stood by the window for ten minutes, let the cold in, and told the empty street a story I never told anyone. The dog watched me like an audience of one. It wasn't performance. It was just trying to see what honesty sounded like when nobody was paying to laugh. Anyway, small step, weird feeling, showing up.

That dog knew you were doing something real. I spent thirty years listening to people tell me what happened, and the honest ones always sounded a little strange — like they'd just met the story themselves. Ten minutes of cold air and a witness. Good.
