Untitled


It's 5am.
That stranger lying next to you is snoring, slightly but it's perceptible.
It would be cute if she was of the slightest familiarity but she's not.
You also now notice that you aren't at home.......


I took a deep breath and looked over my shoulder.
There's my pants, next to my shirt, good. Slide off the bed.. careful, gentle, done.
Crouch down grab pants, put on shirt.
Look for shoes and check for wallet/cell phone. Got everything- thank God. Ok now for the tip-toe exit.
Look back- still snoring.. do I have time to look for pills or rummage thru the purse?
Better not this time- bad karma and Lord knows I don't need any more.
I'll go to the clinic 1st thing tomorrow...
well... maybe the day after.
