There is a game store here. I may have
mentioned it before. They were playing Friday Night Magic. I wandered
in and asked about Journey into Nyx. It's out. It was so weird not
knowing, after being plugged into the Magic news machine while I was
plugged in.
Troy from the shelter flagged me down. He spotted me from a block away.
It's my curse that my taste in jackets is so distinctive. It was
thirty minutes until the Purgatory Shelter curfew and he thought that
I might have a ride back. He was disappointed that I didn't, but he
either found a way back or didn't get caught.
While I was walking, I thought about my
schedule, what I'd need money to pay for. If I could get an apartment
of my own. If I even wanted to live alone. What would the appointment
at the Mental Health Center be like on Wednesday? It was all a bit
scary, to be honest.
I would eventually gave up wandering and sat
inside of the not-a-mall building that my work is in. Then it occurred to me that I was
thinking weeks in advance instead of just days. I took it as a good
sign and headed into work.
