day 345: comfortable spice




I sit in the white leather chair in the den and think and think. Geo walks in with a friend and brings me some chicken korma they have brought home for me. I want to be by myself for a bit more, so I eat alone and enjoy the quiet and comfort of the silence. The food is spicy and burns my mouth a little, so I call out "hooooweeee" and keep eating as my friend calls out an apology from the living room. I rinse my plate and join the guys and we talk about our kids, our responsibilities, our lives. It feels good to have friends I have known for over 20 years. That is part of being an adult. Then we drive him home and I guzzle a bottle of water and doze off a bit on the way home. My mouth still burns a little.

Too hot for my tummy. I only like medium spicy food now. Nice of them to bring you something to eat though. Your time alone sounds great.
