Nothing says loneliness like a mixtape amirite?

These days kids are making youtube playlists. Or I do. But I’m an ADULT.

So whatever. The point is I’ve got a pretty pitiful love life and nobody to actually create an entire playlist for. I don’t even really listen to enough music nor pay attention to the subtleties of personality (SITE NAME, THANK YOU) to do that kind of shit.

Rather, I thought back, waaay back about half of my life ago, and tried to associate a song to someone I either dated or should have dated. The ‘should have dated’ list is a lot shorter than what I was expecting it to be, for the key reasons that: I don’t remember people who I ultimately don’t care about, and even if I do remember them and think I should have dated them, I probably didn’t hang around them enough to associate a song.

And if I did manage to associate a song, well, that would mean they’re in the mix.

So it begins.

Father?

I’m going to find out if I’m a dad on Wednesday.

We talked about this on the phone.

L- You weren’t supposed to know yet! I hate myself right now because it came out.
E- When did it start?
L- 5 days ago.
E- Why hides? I’m not mad!
L- THEY WILL THROW YOU IN JAIL ERIC! I know my parents and I won’t let it happen. I won’t let them.
E- I guess it’s good you didn’t tell you parents you were raped. Could always blame him?
L- …I won’t tell them that either :’(
E- So you’re going to Virgin Mary the baby? You don’t have any say what happens to me if you say it’s mine, and it is.
L- I will fight for you by I doubt they would listen.
E- Guess I’m moving to France, lol.
L- Do what you have to in order to escape… But wait until I know for sure. DAMN IT!!!
E- So when you find out, then you’re telling it’s mine too, correct?
L- They would guess, I wouldn’t have to say. But if they don’t get it I will tell them.
E- …Okay.
L- This would ruin your life I am so sorry.
E- Alright hun, calm down.
L- Eric… I am calm… If I wasn’t this whole household would be in hell and I wouldn’t be talking to you. It’s just me and a dark room.
E- Nevermind. You just don’t have to be so apologetic though. I won’t run, they’ll be mad at me, FINE, but I have NO interest in cowardice.
L- I WONT HAVE IT ERIC IF I AM PREGNANT I DONT CARE I WILL FIND A WAY TO ABORT!!!
E- Excuse me?
L- I won’t lose you.
E- You’re not going to abort your kid. That is a monstrous idea. What the HELL is wrong with you?
L- You would be labeled pedophile or whatever and you would be lucky if you make it out of jail because of that word… That will kill me.
E- It’s a broken law and six months. I can handle that. I don’t know that I could handle doing that for a murderer, though.
L- Fine I won’t abort but I will not have you in jail… That’s not what I want for you.
E- Yeah, the felony will probably destroy my acting career. But jail won’t do anything to me but waste my time. You’ll be 18 when I get out, though.
L- Gotta say it feels good to be able to cry…
E- Yeah, it does…
L- You’re not crying are you?
E- Heh… I have to go. I love you.
L- …I love you too. You know you will be a fantastic father.
E- I’ll try.
L- Well now that my eyes are begging to shut… I must rest. Good night, I love you.
E- I love you two.
