Me and the things that I go through every day. They are my friends and we talk often, but I am sure they wonder about Then the nurses see me and we smile at each other and exchange greetings. I hear the muffled sounds of crying in the distance and know exactly who is making those sounds. A person can get used to anything, if given enough time. They are in their rooms, alone except for television, but they, like me,Īre used to it. Like my hair and the hair of most people here, though I'm the only one in the hallway this morning. I walk on tiled floors, white in color and speckled with gray. Instead I slip it beneath my arm and continue on my way to the place I must go. I stand from my seat by the window and shuffle across the room, stopping at the desk to pick up the notebook I have read a hundred times. I cough, and through squinted eyes I check my watch. There is a sickness rolling through my body I'm neither strong nor healthy, and my days are spent like an old party balloon: listless, spongy, and growing softer over time. Until three years ago it would have been easy to ignore, but it's The path is straight as ever, but now it is strewn with the rocks and gravel that accumulate over a lifetime. Time, unfortunately, doesn't make it easy to stay on course. One, and I wouldn't have had it any other way. I have no complaints about my path and the places it has taken me enough complaints to fill a circus tent about other things, maybe, but the path I've chosen has always been the right In my mind it's a little bit of both, and no matter how you choose to view it in the end, it does not change the fact that it involves a great deal of my The romantics would call this a love story, the cynics would call it a tragedy. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten, but I've loved another with all my heart and soul, and to me, this has always been enough. A good buy, a lucky buy, and I've learned that not everyone can say this about his life. I suppose it has most resembled a blue-chip stock: fairly stable, more ups thanĭowns, and gradually trending upward over time. It has not been the rip-roaring spectacular I fancied it would be, but neither have I burrowed around with the gophers. Eighty years, I think sometimes, and despite my own acceptance of my age, it still amazes me that I haven't been warm since George Bush was president.

It clicks and groans and spews hot air like a fairytale dragon, and still my body shivers with a cold that The thermostat in my room is set as high as it will go, and a smaller space heater sits directly behind me. I'm a sight this morning: two shirts, heavy pants, a scarf wrapped twice around my neck and tucked into a thick sweater knitted by my daughter The sun has come up and I am sitting by a window that is foggy with the breath of a life gone by. Not horrible but there are better.Who am I? And how, I wonder, will this story end? Violence: 2/10 Not really there unless you wanna count the guy hanging off a ferris wheel and pressuring the girl to say yes to him. Swearing: 3/10 It’s occasionally there, nothing more than damn, sh-t, hell, those things.ĭrugs/Smoking/Drinking: Almost none, some alcohol and smoking. From there it’s not graphic but the woman has an orgasm. There is another scene where the main couple passionately kiss, and he takes off her shirt and they go to the bedroom, again no nudity shown.

There is a scene where two characters stand naked in front of each other, kiss for a while, then decide they don’t want to have sex yet.
