Woke w a headache
Nothing drastic. Just mild pain. So what.
The birds are chirping outside. It's a nice summery morning in San Francisco. Bright sunshine, cool breezes of the ocean. I don't deserve to live here but I've paid my dues. So what.
We've had hella roommates. People come and people go. Some are still friends others I barely remember. One guy was scheduled to move in and before the move in date he brought all his stuff and we stored it in the hallway. The day came but no sign of him. Two more days passed and still no sign. We called his old place.
"Oh, you didn't hear? He passed away. OD'd."
We were kind of in shock. We had all his stuff.
His parents came to collect his stuff. They wanted his rent money and deposit.
We were like sorry we had to pay the rent. We gave them the deposit and told them if we find someone quickly we'd give them the difference. They were annoyed they didn't get all the money and took his shit and left.
We called a woman we'd said no to and offered her the room. She said she'd take it at the end of the month.
Life goes on. So what.
