Me:

I told one of them that everyone here acts like fucking Peter Pans.

Think they get to laze around all day.

Me:

Maybe I need to send him to the rocks and then write.

I’ll figure out a trigger and say it. Like put on a show I don’t even want to watch. And then he will run off and I’ll write thousands of words.

Alice:

And I'll laugh for 50 years.

When your acknowledgements honor The Rocks.

Me:

To The Rocks. For giving me the space to write.

Alice:

“Thank you for your reliable presence and stable existence."

About 2 hours later

Me:

He never came back. Seems very strange. Has been like 90+ mins bordering 2 hours.

Didn’t take his phone or watch, so I can’t even see where he is.

Alice:

Hm. Has that ever happened before?

Me:

Yesterday was like 2 hours. But he had his watch so I could see where he was.

Unacceptable from my perspective.

Like are we 5 years old and run away with no way of getting in contact? No, no we are not.

Alice:

Do you want to go find him?

Me:

I don’t know where he would be and I live in a really shitty part of Sunset Cay.

Lots of tweakers everywhere.

I think about it. She makes a point. I can go see where he is.

Is it the safest option? No, it would be far safer to just sit here. Physically.
