The futility of certain comparisons

Last couple days, total waste. Why am I not doing the sinkfull of dishes? Why am I not sorting or at least straightening the house? As long as I'm stuck here. What am I doing instead? Lying in bed like an idiot. Like a moron. Lying in bed like a scumbag. Lying in bed like a rapist. Lying in bed like a racist pedophile. Lying in bed like a god damn mass-murderer. Lying in bed like a...who else lies in bed? Almost everybody, I guess. It's not a very valuable comparison really.

Sick of it, and of my cells and my tissues. Sick of it, and of sick. My humor turns black; nothing I want to say that I'll later have wanted to have shared. I can read at least, but I have nothing to read that takes me away from cursing myself for not doing the dishes.

Lying in bed like almost everybody except a homeless person.

Aw man.

Thank god I have a bed.

I recline on my couch a lot.

Honesty is the best policy, even in bed. Next time, instead of lying in bed, why not try - truthing in bed?

Dude. I hear you like Gary Busey hears a pill bottle being popped. :)

I'm with you on the sick of sick, and tissues. Fuck, go away already.
And, dishes be damned, I say. Let them glare at you from the kitchen, glare right back at them for having the audacity to pile up while you're sick. The nerve. *huff*

So awful awful at the beginning and so beautiful at the end. Go gratitude!
