prosaic

the biggest change, i think, is that i'm not expecting anything from this point. the thought of being alone for the duration is not troubling; it is just another possibility.

i appreciate how that sounds, but really it is simply the last multiple choice option (none of the above), nothing more. no sympathy or cheering up necessary.

and that mental distraction i mentioned, lasted all of a week.

it is almost funny that i don't say everything i want here, because this is my outlet at this point.
