Eight days into the new year and I see my hope draining away. I hoped I would at least make it through January not screwing up, but I messed up terribly. First I misjudged her time of arrival, so I wasn’t ready. Then I stepped in an an open can of cat food on the floor of her car. Then I didn’t have water for the strays we go feed. Then she brought up the challenged boy who she pays to feed another set of cats and she told me what she thought of us.
The Nazis had it right. Send all the tards to Auschwitz. They shouldn’t have been born anyway.
Does she really feel that way about us? The Auschwitz part, no, of course not. The not been born part? Maybe! While there is a big part of me that feels I should have been aborted, that I take up space in a world better off without me, what can I do? I’m already here annoying as I am. I think she’d miss me if Herr Trumpenfuhrer deported me to Poland even though I’m a major fuck-up. I think my friend truly loves me, but her anger and unhappiness overwhelms her sometimes. She hates the south, but stomachs me. I think of her as family and the thought of losing her is a punch to the stomach. She’s starting to lump me with every Southerner, the proverbial “you people.” I wanted to be good enough, but there’s stuff I can’t stop or have been part of me so long.
Anyway, if Trump can build a wall, I can build a bridge and get over this.
