      too hot for
        ~inquiry

   not that it takes
          much

  a measly little 92F
  feeling like 20,000
    posts under the
           me

    wife out tonight
serving food to her kids
for some "culture fair"
         event

   shot my liver wad
  on three quick shots
       last night

      need it not
      want it not

     same with the
         smoke

    but i'm feeling
       shut down
    across the board

 could call old friends
 but it seems our time
       has passed

  one must be at least
     meagerly able
 to fake not realizing
      what a joke
         it all
           is

      and I don't
       gots that
        tonight

I miss the days portrayed in old movies, where people would go to a local bar within walking distance of their abode and mingle with the miserable people there.

It's a Friday, I want to go for a drink with some old friends -- but I also just want to go home, take a nice cold shower and forget the outside world for a few days.

But that's how it goes isn't it? You prioritize your comforts over new experiences, and you lose touch with everyone who ever meant anything to you. Thank god my SO is still sticking around.
