I have no idea why, but the single most persistent thought
I've had is the image of me driving back from a party at night with my wife
asleep right beside me.
I know it’s not my girlfriend, because you can tell these things and I know it's distracting because of how she literally just lies crumpled beside me with her hair strewn across her face. I know it’s night because any other time would just not make any sense and I know I am driving because there is a light rain on the road which is competing for my attention.
The funny thing about this picture is that no matter how hard I have tried, I can never see her face.
Every single time my head is blank.
Consistently, since I can remember.
It’s weird.
