Well today on the way to the gym I just felt like I was coming down with a cold. When I got there people noticed that it sounded like my nose was stuffed up. I had to just turn around and come home, and I was worried when I didn&#8217;t have that moment of energy like when you call in sick to work and feel energetic for a few minutes. Anyway, I&#8217;m at home and should be asleep already. If I had the option of staying home from work tomorrow instead of being buried, or if I wasn&#8217;t at an exercise seminar for eight hours on Saturday, I&#8217;d probably tough it out tonight. Instead, I&#8217;m bacon-cheeseburgerless.<\/p>\n<p>Ah well. My life didn&#8217;t just start sucking at this moment, it&#8217;s just a steady sort of suck. The closest thing to romance I get is reading restaurant menus on the internet or maybe the closest thing to excitement is seeing a large-bottomed woman in high heels try to jump up and see over a grey cubicle wall. I&#8217;m not sure, but it&#8217;s not good.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The high point of my pathetic life is my Thursdays where I have a bacon cheeseburger with guys from the gym.
