PA

I walk into the building after some hesitation and walk to the bulletin board. "PA- Rm 229." I find the stairs and take them to the second floor and hope that the room is at the other end of the building so that I have more time before I have to go in. I should have remembered I am not that lucky. The room was right by the stairs. The door was closed and I could hear voices inside. I reached for the knob, but froze a few inches before touching it. I couldn't do it. Next week I tell myself. I will do it next week. I feel better. I calmly walk down the stairs, out of the building, and down the street towards the bus stop.

Inside the room: A heavyset, middle aged woman walks up to a podium where a young man just finished speaking, "Thanks for sharing Nathan. Just remember that you are not alone." She turns to the others in the room who are sitting in a semi-circle, "None of us are alone. Even though we are on our separate journeys we are together in this. Who else would like to share?"

An older gentleman that kind of looks like that actor Morgan Freeman stands up and walks towards the podium. He stands in front of everyone and blinks. He starts, "Hello, my name is Grant."
The others respond, "Hello Grant."
Grant takes an easy breath and continues, "This is my 47th Procrastinator's anonymous meeting..."
