” I shaved my legs today,

no one will see them of course,

But it creates the illusion that it’s only a matter of days…

I make my usual expedition from my bed to my couch convincing myself there has to be some cardio in there, somewhere

But there’s an empty space between the sleeping and bathing and eating…” A Mc S Aged 26
