it's tuesday

and my neighbor offered me a ride to the office
even though he was already late and
we barely know one another
after having waited for the bus in subzero temperatures yesterday for 45 minutes
i got into his warm car
and felt thankful to be alive

because it's tuesday
and that usually means that i'm over-tired
over-analytical
instransitive
insecure
but i'm not there just yet

the best part is--even if i am--there won't be any reasons to apologize for myself
