This morning, I spent the entire first hour of my waking moments wondering where to go. It's Friday, the day where I was supposed to work but was explicitly told not to. It's not that big of a deal. I'm not that much of a workaholic. It's just a little difficult finding out what to do, where to go, who to bring, if there is anyone to bring. I look at the empty bed next to me. Probably not. Though there's no harm in trying.

Hunnie: I don't know if I can make it to dinner, so just eat without me

Hunnie: Oh

Hunnie: And can you drop by that place, the usual, and get me a couple boxes of latex gloves, the cheapest bottle of conditioner u can find, and rattail comb? I broke mine and there's a sale there

Hunnie: THANK YOU!!!

Hunnie: NOW I REALLY GOTTA GO!!

Hunnie: LOVE YA

I lock my phone and toss it on the bed. Looks like I have a destination now.

At around 10 a.m., I reach the shop in front of the really modern-looking museum, 'the usual place' as Hunnie likes to call it. I should go in but my head is in the posters and banners posted all over the museum, the front, the sides. 'New Exhibition: Words after Words' they all say accompanied by a picture of a typewriter and a letter sealed with crimson wax, like the ones you often see in movies. Maybe I'll go there afterwards. Who knows? I might be in the mood to go into a museum after getting Hunnie's stuff. Let's just see. I can always go to the cinema and watch any random movie they have. I shrug and walk into the store.
