Friday 7:42 PM
A thunder storm appears to have erupted from the stillness
I’ve been working since one
Before that I spent an hour commuting by bus
It’s less awful than it seems, but that isn’t saying much
They know me hear, and make my drink before I announce it
It’s getting darker by the minute
People are making small talk
The weekend is approaching
Not for me, though, I have tons to do
Alas I shall do it happily
Many would kill for the opportunities I take for granted
My tea is especially watered down now
Gina says “Don’t Get Wet" and hastens my departure
Alright I’ll Go
Hopefully by the time I get home, dinner plans will be solidified
It’s just another day
