Yates

Stories written by Richard Yates is all I've wanted to read, so he is all I am reading. Carl Sagan's writing in Cosmos is fascinating, but requires more brain power than I feel like exhausting at the moment. At first I felt bad about putting it down, but it is what it is.
I forgot to take my pills most of Monday. It was after 4 when it all of a sudden occurred to be that I was fucking sad. Smh.
I always forget to take my pills on Monday being that Mon. is my first day off, and my leisurely mornings means I don't have food under later in the day, so I forget.

I can't wait to for this Monday; looking forward to my three day weekend, and planning to take my damn medicine so it won't be spoiled by more sadness.

 "It was like walking through fire, but they did it quickly and with what anyone would have said was perfect composure, heads up, eyes front, so that the piano only came up loud for a second or two before it diminished and died behind them under the rhythm of their heels."
