      It makes you feel so wasted being around sober people. Or maybe it’s that being around other people who are wasted numbs you to it

        I always felt that they are still wasted, just in another way. They’re recently awake, on the way to work that for the vast majority isn’t something they’re excited about. They’re drained and don’t want to be there. I always thought I’d much rather choose my position in those moments than theirs. And I’m sure at least some see us (in this situation) and are envious.
