[03:10.0]I wake up to pangs of shame
[03:10.0]It’s red hot, but I can’t put my finger on why exactly
[03:10.0]but It’s a weekly occurrence since we all got back together
[03:10.0]There’s only so much my phone can tell me
[03:10.0]So I make the executive decision to stub it out with more of the same
[03:10.0]I’ve said yes to at least three different social events tonight,
[03:10.0]Ranging from pretty pleasant to downright horrible
[03:10.0]The latter doesn’t seem so attractive in the light
[03:10.0]So I sit tight for most of the day, soaking up everything my living room has to offer me. By the time 6 o’clock comes around I’m pretty fired up and make a bee line to Steph’s. En route It occurs to me exactly what happened to get me so riled up this morning
[03:10.0]So I sprint the rest of the way to keep it at bay.
[03:10.0]It sticks at the sides but I’m mostly together by the time I get there.
[03:10.0]Someone new answers the door and I nod solemnly
[03:10.0]They change too quickly to bother with pleasantries so I slip through without saying a thing. I haven’t said a word all day in fact, and the concept suddenly fills me with dread
[03:10.0]So I clear my throat and rasp a hello to no one.
[03:10.0]Steph’s tiny head pokes round a door, and he looks elated.
[03:10.0]His tan cracks around the creases and it’s pretty clear he’s already started on supplies.
[03:10.0]No surprises and I gladly pick up where I left off.
[03:10.0]Later on, somewhere between the car and the cashpoint James turns to me and recites his weekly mantra:
[03:10.0]“At what point do I stop?”
[03:10.0]“I’m nearly 30 and I’ve been flirting with the same clubs and bedroom floors Week in, week out since I was old enough to know what was bad for me But what if that’s as good as it gets?
[03:10.0]A sweaty exchange with a stranger in a darkened room.
[03:10.0]An awkward kiss between sniffs in a toilet cubicle
[03:10.0]It sounds sad on paper but right now it feels pretty viceral, don’t you think?”
[03:10.0]I suggest it just be the chemicals and not something worth hanging onto. I steer the conversation somewhere safe and we’re back on track.
[03:10.0]The night has no right to be as good as it is
[03:10.0]But before I know it, it’s 4 and some scumbag is huffing nos from a binbag I take that as my cue to leave.
