some days are harder than others

dear the future,

I’ve got a boy cat who DGAF and a girl cat who very much GAF

today I asked my GF when the last time she truly relaxed

she said never?

is it a boy thing that thinks there’s magic in zenning out? how could it be if women are the ones who have spa days and brunch and tea

I teller the devil doesn’t wear a suit and knock at your door he slips into your ear hole at a young age and never leaves.

whispering the worst things

singing the saddest songs.

you’ve gotta sing with him

but don’t slide down.

yes my buckets got a hole in it

but inside be laughing.

devil hates a laughing man.

and since he lives inside

inside be laughing.

She is such a sweet person and sure she hasn’t caught the best luck

but some are just born jumpy so you just gotta give em space.

my girl cat is twins with the boy. They’ve never spent more than 10 feet away from each other their whole lives, almost all of it in my luxury mansion.

a safe home with food and drink and secret drink next to the fridge in an upside down Dodgers helmet that once held nachos.

yet she’s constantly on edge

and he’s chill as a dollar bill.

all the forehead kisses in thai town can’t quiet the demons in the minds of the ladies of my happy home.

do amber and i have a perfect relationship? yes.

she doesnt mind that im up writing until 5am. she only smirks when i crawl in bed and tell alexa to wake me up at noon.

and often as she rises in the morning i will hear her via ESP think

how is he so sexy at 197 years old? 

but one thing we disagree on is this pandemic.

me, i say stay at home, wear a mask, and limit ways for the deadly bug to get you.

she is young and full of life and loves being out and aboot.

this causes friction. not sexy friction. and not friction that one day will create a diamond.

this is conflict that digs right to the triad of all relationships: trust, honest communication, and the desire for the relationship to continue.

what you dont trust me? she’ll yell.

no, no i dont! i’ll write on a post-it and slap it on Prince’s tail.

unlike most relationships this lack of trust isn’t of a sexual nature, as a libra on the scorpio cusp i dare you to woo her better than i

i just dont trust how close she will talk with strangers, or how close other men want to get to her on the sidewalk.

and then she does the sweetest things like put together dollar store care packages for the homeless

every afternoon as i rise i see her smile turned upside down and i know it’s over one thing: her pissed off ness for being locked up like Rapunzel, who is not allowed to have handsome italian men charge her $700 to give her hair — her beautiful hair — the Sexy Smooth she’s grown accustomed to.

and it’s all my fault.

thats what she tells me.

YOU SAID THIS WOULD BE OVER BY THE FOURTH OF JULY! she reminds me.

how did i know the GOP would let it electorate suffer this fate?

live and learn, i guess.

or just learn.
