On the Fly
Yawn.
The two men are a funny pair. Two cups of deep, black coffee are pushing on my bladder walls.
I wish you were here with me. Isolation has gotten tiresome and I am ready for some stimulation.
No one wants to talk to the girl in black. This resting bitch face has gotten out of control.
God I want a pastry.
But the mirror across from this table reminds me of my chins and somehow my appetite has waned.
Vanity is the best suppressant.
Everyone seems so desperate to be noticed. I am nauseated by my own desire for the same recognition.
People flow in and out and chatter aimlessly. I smile faintly trying to break out of my normal scowl.
Shit, my car just got ticketed.
More later.

sorry, Alexandra..but I just heard a comedic "infomercial" on "resting bitchy face" and realized I might just be a sufferer at times..
Anyhow, a great commentary on how self-consciousness works against our own personalities and desires for social connectedness.
