OBVIOUSLY NOT FINE
Stay calm. It’ll all be fine.
If there was one place Maggie Le did not want to be, it was pushing a
wobbly shopping cart through the narrow aisles of Tasty Great, the primary
supermarket in the town of Fool’s Falls, eastern Washington State,
population five thousand. Unfortunately, it was the only place to get food,
and after eating tuna straight out of the can with a few farting squirts of
mustard from a bottle that was more air than condiment, she had finally
conceded that her cupboards were truly bare.
Still, it was fine. She’d get in, stock up, and get out with a minimum
of interaction. Some pleasantries to the checkout lady. Comments on the
weather.
She could do this. Or, more to the point, her best friend, Rosita, had
told her she had to do this when she’d left her a voice mail asking if flour
had an expiration date.
She dragged her feet, frowning at the articles on various shelves. She
would admit to feeling a little off the past few weeks. She wanted to blame
it on being busy. She’d just finished edits on a nonfiction book for a
business publisher that was a regular client, then done some sample edits
for possible future jobs. She’d done some administrative stuff—
spreadsheets and money tracking—then lined up a few more projects,
including editing a horror novel at the end of the month. For a freelancer,
busy meant money, and that was always good, even if it meant she
overbooked occasionally.
Because she worked from home, she was used to setting her own
schedule. In the past few weeks she’d started to abandon her circadian
rhythms. She found herself working whenever she felt like it, getting up
when she felt like it, sleeping when she had to. Which meant, for the past
week, she had found herself asleep in the recliner more than once, sending a
response email at three in the morning (her client later replied, “Why were
you up at three a.m.?” which, okay, rude), and eating what was left in the
house when she felt like it.
Some people might think this erratic, possibly a cause for concern.
She preferred to think of it as not giving a single, solitary fuck.
Which, she supposed, might also be considered just the teeniest bit
aggressive.
