Day 117
Today I am supposed to be selfish.
Is it bad to say nothing really changes?
I do treat customers today with complete contempt. I’ll help them complete their order, ‘cause that’s my job, but I’m not going to care about their lives. Old ladies start talking about how their dog is dying of a sore foot or whatever, I don’t care today! I’ll stare at them with a look of utter boredom.
This is fun. I find that acting like this actually does make me so bored with my day—the fact that Mike’s coming out this evening doesn’t really help much.
Mike’s a bit late, I find later. His parents don’t want to leave till later, or something, I don’t know what’s going on. Since I’m driving out a bit to meet him, I don’t want it to be too late.
I finally leave around 9 pm.
There’s a traffic jam. The freeway’s down to one lane. I drive like a selfish jerk—cutting people off, not letting anyone into my lane—and I make it through faster. Awesome.
Then I see Mike and he makes the being selfish thing easier by giving me presents! Candy and a T-shirt. I like getting presents. :D
--
I still have the T-shirt, and I actually wear it as a sleep shirt now. wore it last time I visited Mike.
He has a matching one. Is that dorky?
