Scratching through the day

The crew is back to dig up the road and it was nice to be at work at the round table before they began their work. It's before 8 a.m. and they don't usually start until after all of the buses go through.

I'm listening to new punk rock songs thanks to an algorithm in Apple Music. I created a station off of the song Bus Stop by the band Tee Vee Repairman. I want to pretend like it is the past and that the world I live in is not in as much danger as it seems. Listening to the music makes me feel young even though I need to embrace my age and use it.


I am terrible at making images but I keep trying anyway. I don't want to say I can't do something, even though there is plenty I don't know how to do. There's also a lot of things I wish I could do better. Which do you choose?


The rain held off and I should go for a walk. I seem to have stopped doing that with the intensity I had two months ago. Part of me is tired of walking the same route. I don't have enough money right now to walk to a shop to get some food while I work. I hope I'll get there again and maybe I will. 


I began a phone call upbeat and it ended on a sort of a downbeat but this could likely be because I am hungry. I've been awake for five hours and probably should have eaten something at some point. This is now being worked out.

I ate food and now I'd like to not care about anything for a while, but that's not how this works. I've written about 1,200 words for a story and I'm not interested today. Again, that's not how this works.

I took a long nap because something in me felt it was necessary. I dreamed things that did not happen but felt more relaxing in them because it was pleasant and I wasn't responsible for anything. 


I forgot about all of this and here I yet am. No need to say any details.
