Hey, Michelle. How are you? Hey, Aubrey. I'm doing well. Aubrey, do you have any friends that just pop in to visit you without calling?
Aubrey Carter 2:08
Yes. And I actually really love it. I love when a friend that I really like starts popping in. And actually, I know this is a hot take. Not everyone would like this. including my partner, maybe. But I love when we get on a walk-in basis, when they just walk in without even knocking. I actually really love that, especially if they know I'm expecting them. Like I just texted like, yes, come on over. Then they're just going to walk in. Maybe they wouldn't they would probably knock if i wasn't expecting them but if i am they just walk in and something just happened recently when a friend that i didn't know quite as well walked in and i was like i love that you just walked in i love that we're on walk-in basis and she was like oh your husband was in the front yard and he told me to go in i was like that's so funny it was really funny so i'm like well either way i'm glad you felt comfortable walking in okay

But there's a lot here because I don't want my parents popping in on me. Right. You know, my parents know this. I'm like, don't pop in. Let me know if I want to be prepared. I need to not be working because then I feel bad if I'm like, oh, I can't talk to you. I'm recording podcasts, right? I need to know.
