Look at the way we've got to hide what we're doing. What would they say if they ever knew?


This is my new best friend.
Sorry.
You're being replaced.
His name is Winston and he loves me the way I am.

Alternate story line:
What do you MEAN I don't have any friends? I have LOADS of them.
Here's one right now.

I don't need people...I've got a duck.

Some days...

Some days I just want to curl up in the fetal position and take a moment to reexamine my life.
Today was one of those days.

My job, normally, is pretty enjoyable.
I don't have a whole lot to complain about.
I bus tables, clean, carry around food, make coffee, and chat with customers.
Not bad, not bad.

...And, occasionally, I have to do a parking lot check.
I meander around outdoors with a dustpan and broom, cleaning up cigarettes, leaves, straw wrappers...
The average trash that clutters up the store front.

Today, I decided to be extra thorough.
I decided, hey, why SHOULDN'T I clean out every scrap of junk stuck under the bushes?

Amidst the discarded, forgotten rubbish of passing customers,
I discovered some horrifying artifacts.

A list of things I found on lot check today:

Wrappers
Plastic spoons, forks, knives
Cigarettes
Napkins
Screws
Leaves
Gum
Bread
Half a diaper
Condoms.
CLEARLY RECENTLY USED, stained underwear

It did not help that I missed my morning alarm and was sick the entire day.
It felt rough.
But I'm alive.

I came home, showered, and tried to take a nap...

I awoke in a cold sweat, whispering to myself...
"The bus tubs are overflowing! I need to get the bus tubs."


This is a re-occuring nightmare.

Customers:
"Hey could you microwave this salad for me?"
"Would you spit in this if I ask you to?"
"Enjoy your meal!" "You, too."

I'll post something relevant someday...
When I buy a scanner...
I'll...
Just...
I'll get better...I promise.

Just keep telling myself that.
