The Failings of Youth

The phone was ringing again, but I didn’t bother to answer it. I figured it was probably my mother, calling to ask how I was doing, and I’d have to lie and tell her my rent was on time, I was eating very well, my girlfriend hadn’t left me, I wasn’t behind on my car payments, and I didn’t drop out of college. I hated lying to everybody about the details.

Truth is, I was pretty happy, despite everything that was going wrong. I have no complaints. I just didn’t feel like trying to explain how my life could be falling apart while I simply wasn’t.
