The Purchase
I took a deep breath and just a little more than a sip of wine as I steeled my nerves, preparing to do one of the things that scared me most in the world. It was such a simple thing. I knew that if anyone could see how close to a breakdown I was, they would think I was certifiably insane. Most of the lights were off in my living room so the glare from my computer screen was especially harsh. Which was actually fitting for how I was feeling. Just as I gave up and was about to shut my computer down, my phone rang. I answered to the sound of my sister rattling off a list of all the things that made her body absolutely perfect.
