  • Christmas morning with my family and I wasn't into it. I handed out presents but stopped halfway through - no one was paying attention anyway. One was a chocolate Easter egg for Tiffany - who's Tiffany? I walked around and around the table. Bonita was there smiling. We sat around and watched a video of Marvin K. Mooney but it was grainy and awful, captions we had to strain to read and voice-overs we couldn't decipher at all, and my dad remarked that this must not be the remastered version.

  • immobility, pain.

  • I kissed Ben for a long time. He was quieter.

    Got out of the shower and realized I'd forgotten to wash my hair, but no time now. Ben was in the bathtub - how had I missed him being in the room? He would not draw the shower curtain and I yelled at him and finally, when he would not stop looking at me, I tore down the curtain and threw it over his face. I was sorry I'd kissed him.
