it took forever

by njcoleman

it took forever for the hot water to get up to my hotel room

every hotel I get a room in the hot water takes forever to get to me

I'm not kidding

and I'm on like the 3rd floor, not the 12th or the 32nd

the hotels I stay in don't have 12 stories

and they definitely don't have 32.

but the view was OK

the roof of the lobby below had a lot of things going on

like big fans and motors and pipes

and a lot of water in a big puddle

all the hotels I stay in have a lot of water in big puddles

they really do.

but the girl at the check-in counter really knew what she was doing

she checked me in real quick

and she was friendly

most check-in girls are not friendly at all

they act like you're an inconvenience to their job

which is checking people in to the hotel

check-in guys too.

but when they're nice it makes everything seem not so pointless

I hate it when people treat you like you're standing in a shadow

like you're invisible

it makes me feel like they can't see me

it really gets annoying after a while

like all they see is a big fan and a lot of water in a big puddle.

it really does

inspiration can come from the most mundane things. Not getting hot water for about 3 minutes brought out my inner Holden Caulfield. I'm not kidding. It really did.
