[i]Waking up bright and early in the morning at 7:30 a.m. Gotta be at court for my warrant in debt against my former roommate. Darren tags along since he was a witness to the signing of the debt agreement contract.
Eating Strawberry Toaster Pastries on the way there with
Orange Juice.
Waiting in the courtroom. The roommate doesn’t show and so
is given a default judgment. Now I have an official judgment. And now I can
file for a wage garnishment.
...
Discussing with Darren in the car ride back home about my options
to obtain the debt. Unless I work out an agreement with the roommate, filing a
wage garnishment means its still going to take six months to a year until I get
the debt in full.
Darren: “Dude the world is fucked up!”
Back to sleep around 10:45 a.m.

I drive over to Leslie’s house off Little Neck. It’s been
about a week since we hung out. Up in her room I listen to her recant story
after story while I fidget with these hundred-year-old silver dollars and whatever
nick-nacks she has lying around. She’s notorious for going on tangents. I make
fun and try to keep her on track. I find myself empathizing with her
emotionally and in return offering my own stories relevant to exes.

Before I leave she hands me a small Ziploc bag of Sweet
& Spicy Pecans for me to sample, as well as a small handwritten note card
with the recipe on how to make them (she told me about this secret recipe
before when I obtained all those pecans from North Carolina). As I’m walking to
my car I notice how quiet of a night it is. As well it’s freezing outside. But
the night’s silence is powerful. I take it in for a moment and then hop into
the car. On the drive home I eat all the Pecans with a few swigs of Almond
Milk.
Back home.
Chomping on Popcorn while chatting with Aysena on Skype.
Sleep 4 a.m.
