Weekend Missions

Weekends arrive and you’ve got all this time and you don’t know what to do with it. Someone’s always got a list - things to create, movies to watch, ways to be productive. The suggestions get progressively more absurd, like they’re grasping at meaning and giving up halfway through.

Earplugs and a movie you don’t watch. Sniff people. Look at pictures that make you feel something without touching yourself. The actual stuff worth doing is quieter. Friends who make you laugh. Sex when it lines up. Good food. Sometimes just being still.

The weekend you’re waiting for is usually just the regular one, except nobody’s telling you what matters.
