i just watched my roommate clean out the fridge and make this elaborate meal while i am sitting here in my tiny studio with half a sandwich and wondering how much longer i can keep pretending like this is fine — last night i scrolled through social media seeing everyone else celebrate their promotions or vacations and im just here feeling like the ghost in my own life like maybe i should have gone...
came home after three tours and they handed me a flag and a pamphlet like that was supposed to fill the void of purpose, like thanks for the service but good luck out there. the irony of serving your country only to feel like you just returned from a very bad vacation with no souvenir but a pamphlet on how to get by.
i cannot believe i got that old bicycle working again, after months just sitting in the garage. thought it was going to be a complete failure, but now me and my friend are planning a ride tomorrow and it just feels so light, so freeing, like everything suddenly fell into place.

so my toaster caught fire while i was just trying to make toast, and i was thinking, great, that's one more thing to add to the "how am i doing" list. at this point, i might as well start a support group for appliances that just can't handle their duties anymore.
