I guess that makes it official.
A Confession
Yesterday evening was nice.
No wind, so calm. I sat outside, alone, working on my art for the next big show. Not a care in the world.
The moon appeared to be full. Just hanging out in the sky, alone. So quiet, peaceful. If there's a heaven, that was it, floating by. I thought about going there, someday.
Then She Came to Join Me
I wasn't bothered at first, but this quickly turned into an interruption.
I'm not sure if she knew, but I needed to stay focused. I have a lot on my plate. So much to do and a twenty-four hour day isn't long enough. I tried to tell her with my body language, now isn't a good time. She didn't pick up on it.
I hate it when I lose my cool.
She knew I was busy, she had to know. There's no way she couldn't know.
I should have turned the computer off. It's strange. She knows I'm working, but every time I turn it on and especially at night, she's suddenly drawn to me. Just hangs out. It's fine when she's there, busy, doing her thing, keeping quiet, keeping her distance, leaving me be.
I guess she didn't like my attitude last night. I didn't feel like dealing with drama and I was far too busy. I just got up, left without a word, went inside the house, settled in at the desk.
Finally
I could think again. Must stay focused at all times. Have to remain in the zone or the results end up being sloppy. Started to have fun again, but it didn't last.
I had about thirty minutes. One half of an hour. I just don't get it. I thought the message was clear. I'm busy. I need to finish this. Stop bothering me.
I have bills to pay. Don't start giving me shit because I'm spending time doing the things I do so I'm able to pay the bills.
I Now Put a Roof Over Your Head
A shared space. Respect goes a long way. You wanted my attention now you have my attention. Why are you bothering me here, now. I need to get this done. First you're in my ear outside, breaking the silence, now you're here in my ear and getting all up in my face! What is the point of all this?
My thoughts raced like that, but I said nothing. I didn't want to fight, but now she seemed like she was out for blood. No point in arguing. How do you even argue with that? They can't seem to understand anything and win by default, every time.
Again, I walked away. This time, to give up on my entire day.
Time to Go to Sleep
I nicely got comfortable. Started to relax. Time to unwind. Time to lose touch with this reality and wander into the next, for a few hours.
Probably for the best. Sleep early, wake up early, finish when it's quiet again. Nothing wrong with that.
She then entered the room.
I probably slept for ten minutes, if that. She didn't make any effort to be quiet, no. She got right back up in my face and in my ear. Flying around the room, having a mental fit. Poking at me, screaming at me!
Finally I had enough!
Open hand slaps!
As hard as I could!
Repeatedly!
Until she was...
dead.
