The Fear of Falling Apart

[rolls her eyes] Well, I don’t see you going home. 

Unfortunately, I still need to finish this assignment for work and working from home doesn’t work for me because of my dogs.

But I love it.

Yeah.. not really my thing either, to be honest. I need to sleep laying down on a bed with a million pillows. So, go home, take a nap on your bed horizontally. Problem solved. 

[sarcastically] Oh, wow, why didn’t I think of that?

See.. my dad used to fall asleep at the movies, but he would never nap in a coffee shop or like on a bench in the park. I’ve seen my fair share of public nappers, but I will never understand it. I have to be comfortable to sleep, you know?

I quite enjoy laying horizontally in a comfortable bed personally. Sleeping while sitting up? Not really my thing.

There is a counter full of pastries and sandwiches over there. I can stalk his social media for you if you want.

Please do. Do you want anything to eat?

Well, yeah.. No, duh. I didn’t mean like right this very minute. Just go home and take a nap. See if that helps and then go from there. 

Listen, I’ve met people who nap in public, like regularly. Granted one of them is my friend’s narcoleptic father, and that’s obviously not by choice, but some people just... nap on purpose out in the open. 

No problem.

I guess I’ll have to snoop a bit harder. But first, snack. I need a snack.

He snores some in his sleep. *she shrugs* 

Yeah I’m not going to bring that up. I appreciate the sentiment though.

Even smaller car. 

So do you know shit about him that might be useful for my interview?

Yep, you caught me redhanded.

*nods* Yeah. 

Well shit. Small world.
