01:15
And who you never really liked the first place.
01:18
So if you can borrow her house and rind back, I just got married
01:24
and after a three hour long conversation, did you learn sign
01:28
language during which you order new cat food, trim your toenails
01:32
and reorganize your kitchen's junk drawer.
01:35
She agrees.
01:36
Yeah, of course.
01:37
You then ask your morose upstairs neighbor who overshares
01:41
their problems with you in the hallway.
01:43
I can't be having some bitch take my motherfucker steps if
01:46
you can borrow their car after they tell you again about their
01:51
failed veterinary career and renewed interest in online
01:55
dating, they hand you the keys, you hit the road, you drive
02:06
two hours in a vehicle that doesn't have proper heating and
02:10
then gets way too hot.
02:13
You forget to bring cash for the tolls and have to wait for a
02:18
paper invoice.
02:19
Can we bundle them?
02:20
You eat some fast food, which you never do and then can't find
02:25
a bathroom upon arrival.
02:31
You realize you forgot the Virginia Woolf book you've been
02:34
needing to read for the past 12 years in which you were sure
02:38
you would finish in 48 hours.
02:41
Oh, shit.
02:43
Once you get settled in, you put on your boots and head out for
02:48
a hike shortly after you step outside, you run into the very
02:53
person you wanted to get away from you.
02:56
Oh God.
02:57
Hi.
02:58
Your boss.
02:58
So I'm trying to make a fire.
03:00

03:00
Well, I can't make these, first of all, I managed to lose her
03:04
by pretending you see a UFO and continue on your way.
03:08
But dark clouds gather and thunder growls above you.
03:12
It starts to rain in spite of all.
03:16
You keep going anyway.
03:18
That's what you got it.
03:22
So you'll live happily ever after.
03:25
No, no, not at all.
03:27
So you're happy but you, but you want to be happy, like, make
03:31
new friends but keep the old, it's more about the circumstance
03:34
right?
03:34
Like the situation, like resilience, you know, like, like
03:38
like dance, like nobody's watching but like, do it, like
