This Stage

It's Friday. I like that. Except that I have to go to work. But the upside is that maybe I'll make some money. Maybe. And I have the house to myself, so no one will criticize me when I stay in bed until 2 and just lounge around instead of 'making myself useful'.

The goal today is to not mope about how bad I feel about everything. Try not to think about that man. Try not to think about the film roadblocks. Try not to think about family problems. Try not to think about being so broke I feel guilty buying a burrito at Taco Bell. Try not to think about homework.

So far, I'm doing ok, but I've only been up for 45 minutes. And it seems like something always happens to make things suck more than they already do. But I'm hoping for nothing to happen. Just let me stay at this stage of crappiness for today. I want life to stop for just a little bit.
