Jessica is officially moved out and Darren and Devon have officially moved in.


Ana calls me up on the phone. She says she has a lot of energy and wants to chat but I don't have a lot to talk about cause my day was pretty routine and I don't typically enjoy conversations on the phone unless they're necessary. It's close to 2 a.m. and I'm just tired. I hate to let her down so we talk for about ten minutes or so.


Later on as I'm about to brush my teeth I notice somebody in the bathroom with the water running. I assume it's Kevin but after knocking on the door I hear no answer. I find a way to open the door and discover Anthony slouched on the toilet sitting in the same position as that famous statue of the thinking man. And yet he's sleeping. I turn off the running faucet and startle him awake, "Anthony? Hey, were you sleeping?"

"No," he replies stoically.

Me: "Oh. Okay. I thought you were Kevin. Are you drunk?"

"No," he repeats the same answer.

I close the door and add, "That's a lie."

I say a prayer for him and go to bed.
