the irony of a sponge she's "retreating" drawing more and more inward is she trying to escape the musings? or is she just there? she can answer neither a disease took her friend away something that felt divinely cruel with much considered ("crisis of faith", such is existence) retreating, going inward currently, she watched an old show a long running one from childhood still retreating

years ago, she'd be laughing currently, she doesn't laugh anymore paraodixically she watched while she felt the knife twist her friend's disease affected her before and she remembers she hated reminders no, they made her retreat this show came with two reminders and still she watched noting, idly, that her friend never liked television.
