Today I woke up and watched some YouTube.
I got out of bed and brushed my teeth.
I took a shower immediately after.
I took my dog outside and played fetch.
We came back inside and he gnawed on a bone.
I didn’t fancy a bone.
I turned on some college football.
I went and picked up some Wendy’s.
She wasn’t there.
I again watched some football.
I think I will eat some leftovers for dinner.

It started with a day where life beat you down,
Punctuated by a long day at work
Staying late in the office, not able to leave
A confused look as the door swings open,
Everyone else already went home
An oh so familiar face steps through, not supposed to be here

An inescapable sigh escapes your lips towards a lopsided grin.
Not having the energy to deal with this.
Yet still you approach undeterred from your plan.
You came with 5-star food and paper plates
Plastic champaign glasses and electric candles.
To complete the facsimile a trip to the large bay windows
An empty desk and white table cloth
For a moment beneath the setting sun
The mind-numbing office becomes a diner under the stars.
A meal that sends you back to a trip in Paris
The sounds and smells draw you in.
The cliché music earning a chuckle
A friendly face and easy conversation
Is a welcome relaxation to ease the mind.
And for the time we longer engulfed by the hustle and bustle of life
But in a place of dreams and reminiscing
From nothing more than an office dinner.
