The Diary of Antoine Roquentin

Man, last night was so strange. I went to sleep at like 5 p.m. and woke up around nine, when Ben called me. I did my creative writing assignment and he did some reading he had to do, and then around eleven we started our journey looking for Royce. We went out to his house, but he wasn’t there, so we left a message on his door and went back to town. We hung out at KidTown for a while, then went over to Josh’s to see if Charley was online. He wasn’t, but as soon as we left Josh pulled up. We hung out for a while, he was really pissing me off. I’ll elaborate later.

Well anyway, Ben had lost this tie he had, so we went back to Royce’s house to look for it, and we found two of his windows broken out and all this glass everywhere and his dogs walking around in it. So we cleaned it all up and left him a new message, then we went and looked for his tie, which we found. I dropped Ben off and I went home, and right as I was getting ready for bed, Royce called! We talked for a little bit, it turned out one of his friends had gotten drunk and broke them. He said he’d call me when he had some time to hang out, I hope he does. I went on this big diatribe when I was at Josh’s house about how the world is screwed up, and he’s all “well then why don’t you go jump off a cliff.”

He just really pisses me off. He has no taste in movies or music, and has settled for living in some shitty town and dating a cheerleader. Maybe it’s something in the city water that makes people lose their fucking minds.
