Me and Mrs. Jones

I have no idea why I titled this post as such.

Who's the only person that you're going to be with for the rest of your life? Not your mom, dad, brother, sister, or closest friend. You. You're the only person you're guaranteed to know from birth to death. So start getting to know yourself. And getting used to yourself. I see people I know unable to come to terms with themselves. And when they can't come to terms with themselves, they don't like themselves. And then they take that out on other people. Including you. And me. And that's just unpleasant.

I don't like speaking so vaguely, so I'll talk about something concrete. Today is Halloween. I saw a woman by herself dressed as a washing machine, casually sipping on a carton of chocolate milk. This was at around 8 pm. What was she doing? What event could she go to as a washing machine? At 8? On a Monday night? Like, what's even the purpose of Halloween if you're at the point where you are a laundry room appliance drinking a sugary beverage? I don't understand.
