cha Cindy Wang Brandt This is very normalized in my COU] | CUCM ATM TES) dao tS <cle =) American friend to errand hang with me, she was so shocked | felt like | did something wrong. That's when | learned in American culture, expecting company for mundane reasons is considered not independent enough. Can we take a moment to talk about the sweetness of the errand friend hang? The errand hang - where you hit your homie up to accompany you while you tend to the tasks that come with adulting - the grocery run, getting a pair of pants tailored, helping you pick a new bedframe, ete. The errand hang dismisses the usual setting of a bar or a lunch. It waves off the expected script of: “give me the summarized updates on your life and then I'll give you the sum on mine.” Instead, the errand hang dances in the sweet vulnerability that comes from the everyday. The errand hang sings: “ok I'm a human and you're a human and we're going to take an intimate walk through this seemingly ordinary part of my life, but if you look closely, this moment will reveal something delightfully specific and illuminating to what makes me - me, and I want to share that with you because quite frankly ~ I just like your company, and even in the silence (sometimes especially in the silence) it makes me feel somewhere between warm and content to have you here beside me.”
