I took a shower, yet still feel terrible. Staring in the mirror, I want to smash my face into the reflective glass. There's this heavy feeling of inferiority and general disgust plaguing my mind for the evening.
We're staying in a house that has an interesting history with me: The last time I slept here, I had familiar relations with one of the tenants. When I saw the mix tape I made her in the bathroom, I shook my head. I thought about how disappointed she must have been when I turned out to not be what she wanted. If she were here tonight, I wonder what we would say to one another. I wonder if I were to sit down and have a heartfelt talk with her, maybe I could sleep with her again.
The door to her room is open. Part of me wants to go in there. Maybe see if she has anything else I gave her out in the open, maybe jerk off in her bed to mark my territory. I do neither. Instead, I pick at the cut on the bottom of my black eye, scrape the scab on my bottom teeth, and savor the metallic taste of dried blood.

Jake's driving. He just changed my song. What an asshole.
I chipped some more teeth last night. I can't help but tongue their new, corse divots as we drive from Philly to Baltimore.
