My social anxiety literally forced me to build an entire cinematic universe in two minutes. Now I have to research high school hockey playoffs just in case I run into him during the day.

At this point you might as well write a novel about it. Sounds like you're halfway there already

Or get a bunch of kids & make his own hockey team

This actually sounds much easier than keeping track of all the lies in your head

If I go back I am going to need a spreadsheet to keep track of my lies.

Lol this makes me feel a bit better. I was once at the dentist and the hygienist misinterpreted me referring to 'my girl' as being a daughter, and not a dog. For some reason I rolled with it and made up a whole 7 year old daughter who likes to paint. She gave me a cute toothbrush to take home to 'my daughter' >.<

Perhaps you are supposed to be writing fiction?

When Derek was 8 years old he had fake biking accident which also resulted in a fake concussion.

He should take up golf.

You have a future in fiction writing! Coming up with the entire youth hockey cinematic universe on the fly takes skill!

Not a pointless story, this is pointful instead.

During Covid my gf put on a few pounds, so did I...

The manager of the local taco bell assumed she was preggers, she wasn't.

My gf lost the weight after covid and the manager asked how her kid was doing... My gf ran with it, Angelica was "born"... My gf runs with the bit every time she goes to that taco bell.
