CHEAT DAY, FUCK CALORIES

Lunch: ham, more ham, deviled eggs(3), cole slaw, ravioli (6), small piece of cake, pineapple chunks
Dinner: half portion of chicken, cottage cheese
Snack: almonds

Easter Sunday at the bro's church. Rainy at first but it cleared off. A freezer door fell on moms arm. My siblings discussed morbid shit about mom and dad. We joked a lot and watched some basketball, then tossed some basketball afterwards .

Middle brother absent.

No pictures.

Kiddos with my folks tomorrow because school is out and I need to work.

I hope I get to run. Praying for a woman to come sweep me off my feet as well. Think the running may actually happen though.

It's curious to me that people tout the separation of church and state and decoupling of religion from education, yet demand continued, increasing involvement from the government on marriage, a construct rooted in religion from time immemorial.

Instead of bickering like pawns in front of our apparent judicial masters, wouldn't it be nice to remove government interference on marriage, and our relationships in general?

Just my 2c.

Making it my tomb

no kiddo this morning. played a little dark souls and then..

cleaned the entire house all day until literally the moment bitchface dropped her off (5pm). yeah, she was supposed to have her all weekend but only ended up keeping her one night.

she went to Graceland with some girl scout friends and it was a dreary weekend, but it turned out for the best because i didn't really want/need to leave the house.

total clean-fest. threw out a bunch of old shit, vacuumed, did the laundry, went through the mail, cleaned the dishes, etc etc.

made some stew on the crockpot and that was essentially all i ate all day.

gave up. felt good.

plenty of people never date again.

plenty of people are fat and happy.

plenty of people go about their lives.

my kid hates her mom.

i have worst case scenarios flying through my head from morning till night.

every day is unending sameness waiting for the other shoe to drop down on top of me.

20130312

desolace.

crawled in bed at 9pm. it's now 12:30am. still can't sleep. too many things too many things too many things.

wrote one verse of a song. it's hopeful. am i? i don't know what i am. my shoulder hurts and my leg hurts and i can't put up a fight right now. i can only be. and being is not enough.

if i could flush all of my negativity down the drain, what would i have? would i be recognizable? would i like myself?

and then there's that damned girl. another museum piece. not until my fat disappears. will it ever? probably not.

sleep attempt #3.

sitting at lunch and my head is swimming bad.

amazing how that dead limb continues to scratch. I've come so far, only to find it caught firmly on my leg, pulling at me with every step. eventually I'll realize the infection has cut too deep, and it's simply too late.

I ran so hard today, but it's never quite good enough. For a person rooted in self hatred, every mirror shatters the illusion of progress, the glamor of future peacefulness, the mirage of a happy ending.

I'm sore.. sick and tired of the routine of sameness. Squandering myself on mundanity, relinquishing control to a furtive, languid deity. The workplace. Like so many cogs have slipped and caught in the inevitable machine of mediocrity, and I'm no better.

I could have been a better husband. Could still be a better father, a better man. Instead, I'll wish and dream and glance at those smiling female faces like I'm seeing them through glass at a museum: observing, documenting, and ultimately moving to the next display.

They won't wait forever. But I will.

A failure.
