Songs for Silverman

Jan 28, 2007 09:57

So last night at 2:30AM during a long drive home someone brought up my ex which threw me for a pretty big loop. The kind of loop where you just sort of tune out and go through all your old memories, good and bad. I put on Ben Folds, which had its own memory of a drive down to Irvine on Thanksgiving where the album moved me to tears and I just started sobbing for over an hour as we listened and drove. Its been the only time Ive ever let anyone watch me cry so hard.

I was in an airport bathroom stall near the end of the breakup and I overheard two guys in the washroom talking about a fellow co-worker who was going through a divorce. They were laughing because the guy was such a wreck and couldn't come into work or function normally.

I don't know where we got to the point where a divorce is just another milestone in life, like getting a driver's license or having kids.
