On birthdays and other tragic celebrations
God I hate having a birthday.
Don’t get me wrong it’s not the changing of age that bothers me. I really don’t worry about getting older. No, what I hate about birthdays is the celebration. It always sucks, invariably.

I've been sleeping more again...
Lately I’ve begun to sleep more… again…
I know what it means, but somehow I feel like maybe this time it just means I’m tired.

It’s like when you’re about to get a migraine and your vision blurs, just enough for you to think.. fan-fucking-tas-tic…you know exactly what’s coming…
It’s like...
nothing worse

there are worse things than being alone but it often takes decades to realize this and most often when you do it’s too late and there’s nothing worse than too late.
