choice

A & B are both about the same age.

A is a corporate lawyer and a partner in a law firm. B is a technician in a TV station.

A dresses in the style “of the moment”. B’s dressing is alright but a little dated.

A drives a BMW (don’t ask me what series, I didn’t pay attention). B drives a really old Ford.

A owns and lives in a two-storey terrace house behind a main street in a very trendy neighbourhood. B is renting a room that’s barely big enough to fit a double bed.

A’s home is furnished in a style that’s a cross between *wallpaper and Vogue Living magazines - the side-effects of a single gay man with too much disposable income. B only has a room - it’s hard to talk about furnishing!

A is comfortably out but B could be accused of being a homophobic gay man.

A and I get along alright but there are no sparks. But B and I… there are plenty of sparks, as well as friction and frustration.

Who would you choose?

sleep

i want a nice hot shower, then i want to drug myself, crawl into bed and never wake up. I want sleep to stop my conscious mind thinking about my problems and help whisk them away. with any luck, i might never wake up, or wake up so far down the line that the problems will not be there anymore.
