I took the day off work because of a serious cough and a sore throat.
I didn't realize that I'd be stuck inside a house with low supplies of cough syrup
and cough drops. I was also dangerously low on entertainment.
At about 3:30 a group of kids on their way home from school gather outside my
door and held a shouting match. It seems one girl felt that she had been
victimized for no reason by a group of boys and decided that enough was
enough. She asked them how they'd feel getting their faces pushed in the snow
every day. They really didn't know how to respond. They shrugged, mumbled, ignored,
and pushed on.
She turned to her friends and said 'How would they feel if they were the ones going to anger
management classes? They think I like that, I have enough shit in my life to deal with.'
I watched this entire scenario play out from my peephole. I felt like fucking Jimmy
Stewart.
At about 4, I decided it was time to leave the house and get some pick me ups.
I ran out of my house, slipped on the stairs, ripped my pants, and ripped my skin :
