Marriage Feels Like This

Found these random scribbles from a journal entry earlier this year. Rang so odd and true I had to share...Don't say I never taught you anything about life.

It says:

I'm watching Alex.

He sits on the couch opposite me
He watches

                a game on his phone.

I am cuddled under a blanket on the love seat,

sola. 

Just watching him,

            watch his phone. 

It sounds creepy. 

It feels like marriage. 

Can anyone relate? Yeah, you probably can. Zombie, screen-centric weeknights are the entertainment du jour.

Unnerving catlike observing/journaling/blogging is another manifestation of that, for the more thinking-we're-clever, egoistic of us.
