"Bones"
My boyfriend had dumped me. The next day I was laid off due to budget cuts. My friends had either been his friends or work friends - so now what was I supposed to do? I was new to the city and didn't have anyone with who I could spend my now very ample free time.

New Year, Same Me
"We're going to do things differently when I get home, okay? Things are going to change. Do you believe me?" My partner asked me these questions from the ICU over Facetime. "I believe you," I said, laying on our bed and wondering if he'd ever make it out of ICU. I realize now how easy it is to say everything is going to change when everything had already changed. He spent the entire month of December in the hospital with Covid-19 while I stayed at our empty home and dreamed of what we'd do when he was home. We weren't the same people we were when he was out of the hospital. We cared more about the little things. We made promises for the tomorrows we hoped would come. We weren't living as ourselves. He was finally released from the hospital, and we started our new lives.
