I hate New Year’s Eve

Two hours in traffic to make it not even the nine ht Why weren’t all these people at a party by now? Whatever tension teeks in Hawaii had relieved was already back to coiling tighter and tighter inside me as the town car inched its way uptown

I tried not to think about all the work I was co of other people’s problems to compound my own:

She cheated

He cheated

Get me full custody of the kids

She can’t have the house in Vail

All she wants is my money

She hasn’t given me a blowjob in three years Listen, asshole, you’re fifty, bald, po She’s twenty-three, hot, and has tits so young they ale? Coet on her knees You’ll get your blowjob She’ll get her spending money Let’s not pretend it was ever more than it really was That doesn’t work for you? Unlike your soon-to-be ex-wife, I’ll take a check Make that out to Drew M Jagger, Attorney at Law

I rubbed the back of htly claustrophobic in the back of the Uber, and looked out theAn old lady with a walker passed us

“I’ll get out here,” I barked at the driver

“But you have luggage?”

I was already exiting the back of the car “Pop the trunk It’s not like we’reanyway”

Traffic was at a dead stop, and it was only two blocks to rabbed my suitcase from the trunk and took in a deep breath of Manhattan

I loved this city as much as I hated it
