been a while...
Well, it's been over a month since my last post.
The only thing really new is that I'm now in my own apartment. I have my own bathroom and kitchen for the first time in over 3 years. I am positively bursting with joy.
I can't really think of much to write about just at the moment, other than this:
The other day, a co-worker asked to buy me breakfast. I didn't particularly want to eat breakfast with this co-worker. He is a grown man who cries in front of other grown men when his hours are cut down due to some rather stupid things he did one morning. I can deal with people yelling at me, swearing at me, etc...but a grown man crying in front of me just leaves me speechless...
Anyway, I agreed to go because he just seems so sad and lonely, and, besides, he was paying.
We went to a place called the City Diner. It was ok, but not great, diner food. The striking thing about the restaurant, though, was that the waitress and I were the only two people there who appeared to weigh less than 350 pounds.
Now, I'm not a small guy. I'm about 50 pounds heavier than I should be(though I have lost about 15 lbs in the 2 weeks since I moved into the new place...probably cause I'm actually using my own kitchen most days, instead of eating massive amounts of fast food) but jumpin' Jesus on a pogo stick, this place was disturbing. One woman who walked by me had an ass in one cheek of which you could have fit two of me. I happened to notice that the waitress, who looked to be 135 lb. at most, was in pretty much constant motion...obviously out of abject terror that if she stopped for a moment, she might be swallowed whole.
Anyway, that's all for now.
