my paper check is sitting on my desk at home, I lost my credit card, there is 9 cents in my checking, my phone battery is also dead
I sit there and stew in my stupidity for an hour and a cop pulls up, I tell him I'm out of fuel he goes "you gotta gas can" nah I don't, he pulls off (my tags were expired but he didn't check that's something)
I say **** it and embark on the longest walk of my life with hardly any sidewalk, having not eaten yet I collapse a couple times in the unkempt grass, I traverse narrow tightrope medians with traffic to my back, you can hear a car approach from a mile away
however worst of all is just the persistent cold getting worse and worse as it approaches midnight
when I arrive home it is Saturday night and my roommates are out and I come to the sad realization I left my garage door opener in my abandoned car
I sit in the cold for another unbearable hour embracing death

you should call in and tell them you got a bad flu and the doc said you won’t be back until Thursday (or you’re out of town for a family thing or funeral - whatever)
and just heal a bit - listen to my ambient drone recommendations and smoke some weed
