was just sitting there while they talked about their plans for the weekend, and all i could think about was how i still have a stack of bills on my desk from last month, the gas tank is nearly empty and my rent is due next week. like, maybe if i just pretend i have no idea about any of this i can push it out of my mind for a little while longer...
yaar, matlab samjho na, yesterday I went to buy a simple potato peeler and left the store with a 5-tier spice rack because—who needs to peel potatoes when you can have curry seasonings for every mood, right? घर वाले समझते नहीं, like they do not appreciate the tactical decision-making involved in such choices!
came home to all this emptiness after years of serving. sometimes i think i traded my whole life for a thank you and a flag, like what even was it for.

woke up this morning and realized i have not done laundry in over two weeks, just been living in the same few outfits because the laundromat is too far and i hate carrying quarters, now i smell like last week’s lunch and i can’t remember when i last felt fresh, kinda stuck in this cycle where the effort to escape feels like too much for the little that i have. also, why do socks keep disappearing?
