Much more than 15 minutes

The homeless guy in a wheelchair that I pass every day on my way home had a bubble gun today. He's really such a nice man.

After much debate with both the dispatch lady and the AAA guy it was finally decided that I was, indeed, right and that my car needed a new battery. So it's installed. But I really have to start my car more often. Harass me, people, because I'm such a bum that I'll never do it without your help.

I keep saying that I need to move but it seems like such a hassle and expense to save an extra hundred bucks a month or so. Things keep popping up--trip to Florida, new car battery, bridesmaids dress--that make me wary to stick my neck out again. Maybe the new building manager will decide that I can paint my walls and have a dog.

I really should be working on my application but all I want out of life is to be in the fetal position on my couch reading something I've already read 8 million times before. I keep convincing myself that I'm not sick and then I move and remind myself that I'm lying.

Lying on the hood of my car tonight waiting for the AAA guy I remembered how in high school I was always trying to get people to have picnics with me on the roof of a car, and how no one would because it was too dirty or would dent the roof.
