this morning #1965.

this morning, no matter how many times i ran a comb through my hair, the knot was still there. absolutely maddening. i’d acquired it during what must have been quite a restless night of sleep. lurking on the back center of my skull where it’s hard to see. fighting for its life. tight. i had no choice but to jump in the shower & try getting it out that way. now i’m definitely going to be late for work & i’ll be showing up with another stupid excuse to boot. sent my boss a text. RUNNING A LITTLE LATE. SORRY! i put down my phone & stepped into the shower. aided by hot water & shampoo, i finally got the knot to relent. felt a rush of relief bounce around my insides. felt the hot water running over my skin. unaware that i no longer had a job.
