It’s been a long day

What? What are you thinking?

Sorry, sorry, I’m just trying to think of—of things I’ve given up on.

No. I can’t think of anything.

    1. Ah. I wish. Kooser said it best:

      That wristwatch, that little gauge you wear, the one you worry over, the one that shows the pressure rising in the boiler of your life? Why not quit reading it? Just open a valve and whistle.
