I’m at a retirement party for my wife’s sergeant at the sheriffs office, trying to act like I belong while silently judging every speech and lukewarm casserole in the room. Smiles everywhere, stories that refuse to end, and me wondering how long is socially acceptable before I disappear. Feels like one of those nights where time slows down just to mess with me. Something bigger definitely laughing at this setup.
