Days collapsing in exhaustion, settling yourself back into the city, alcohol aware, wondering where I am. I know that not once has an hour walked by without handing me a card with your holy name written on it. My eyes falling down, unable to speak it out loud without reverberations stirring within my heart. Scripted now, I don&#8217;t know what to say. It&#8217;s been a week.  Every day an anniversary missed. I&#8217;m waiting. I gave you something and it&#8217;s time you gave it back.

An easy segue, we&#8217;ll all be dressed appropriately, though we&#8217;ll likely be showing up without toast or toilet paper. Tomorrow I don&#8217;t know.

Afterward, I&#8217;m sure there&#8217;s something happening Saturday night. With us, how could there not be? I put down my lack of knowledge to the fact that lately my brain, at best, has been a distracted sieve. <b>Sunday<\/b> is darling <a href=\"http:\/\/www.livejournal.com\/users\/omisha\/\"><b>Chelsea<\/a>&#8216;s birthday dinner<\/b>, and <b>Monday<\/b> is the ever-present <a href=\"http:\/\/www.livejournal.com\/~kurrs\"><b>Korean Movie Night<\/b><\/a>. <b>Tuesday<\/b> is <b><a href=\"http:\/\/\/www.livejournal.com\/~algae_al_fresco\">Beth<\/a>&#8216;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/stonelucifer\/30684648\/\">performance<\/a><\/b> and Wednesday&#8230; Wednesday my skull swishes, an empty shell of me. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.livejournal.com\/~bloodykitty\">Dominique<\/a>, were you Wednesday?
