Which Reminds Me

Yes, there was a time many years ago when all of our friendships in college and work were of the Platonic variety. They all got married and I am still here in this Platonic bubble which is not worthless but not particularly valuable either, a collection of assorted junk that I don't need very much. Here, have some junk, I will be giving away their junk if necessary because anyway eventually I will discard all of this junk and shake off the surly bonds of earth as the poet has said. However, in the meantime I still have to eat and sleep and take care of the various needs of this earthly existence for as long as I live, which is not necessarily anything that you would understand. Needless to say.
