creeping quietly under the water

I've been a hermit crab with a mighty thick shell, a strangely comforting piece of hard shell between me and the world. Did you know that some hermit crabs will support sea anemones on their backs as an extra form of protection under the sea? The anemone eats the dregs of the crab's meals, and the crab can be alone without ever being alone. Amazing. I can relate to that sometimes.
I decided to let go of my Atlanta dream and remain in my little crab shell in the basement of my parents' house, where I spend hours upon hours hiding out, reading, listening to music. I hardly exist to the rest of the world for the time being. During the week, I spend a lot of time in Atlanta because I have class Tuesday and Thursday. Once I come home from the city, I'm scavenging the bottom of the sea. What an alter-ego.
I need a steady job.
