Let's call this "reconstruction".
Still employed.
Still housed.
I guess that's progress.
But, I'm at the smorgasborg, and nothing looks good.
Games.
Books.
Comics.
Girls.
Projects.
I have the faintest, most lukewarm of interests right now.
I hate when these slumps come on because they're tremendous time wasters.
I'll pull out of them, and look around realizing all the time I lost sulking or feeling grey.
I'm at the smorgasborg, and I had homecooked perfection for almost 2 years.
She's a hard act to follow.
I'm training half of my replacement. Still maneuvering to wiggle forward in the company.
Other half of my replacement may or may not be in-bound.
Won't know for a while.
Keep having minor explosions, and bailouts, and flakes.
I feel like you were the edge of the world.
Like after you there's nothing.
Maybe that feeling will disappear. Maybe you will first.
At this exact moment, I want neither to happen.
