Pathetic places where I can't keep it together
1.Publix: the produce department
2.Target: home/furnishings (buckets)
3.Anywhere in Hapeville
4.Can’t eat Dominos
5.Any car ride longer than 20 minutes
Anywhere at all once it’s after 10PM.

I hurt my neck lifting my daughter on to my shoulders. I have one of those necks that strains easily. I’ve hurt my neck drying my hair after a shower not once, but twice, or maybe three times. I feel old. Not old, old, but old for my age. I work really hard to make a living. A living with no…

And I learned to disregard all that supportive “I will always be your friend, too” bullshit from “our” friends. And I have no more delusions about being welcome on Wednesday....

Right now I would love to just undo it. Say j/k and wake up in the morning beside him with everything where it was. But not for the right reasons. Of course I miss him so much it hurts everywhere. Of course. He’s my best friend, and he’s just suddenly not here anymore. Or, rather, I’m not there.
I don’t know how to start making my life okay again.

Everyone tried. Sometimes it just doesn’t work.
I promised myself a long time ago I would never make the same mistakes as my parents. I had to get out before there was ever a ring or kids. I had to.
I’m still glad we were together. I would do it all over again.
