Tipsy confession...set to Neko Case's "Set Out Running"

The most acutely aware of my loneliness I have been all year wasn't New Year's Day, Valentine's Day, my birthday, or sunset. No, it was earth hour. I turned off all the lights and drank wine by candlelight. There wasn't anything bad about it, but I realized how much easier earth hour is with someone. There was something about solitary solidarity that made me feel more alone than I ever had in my life.
