Living in a Box

This past month my life has been encapsulated into two closets.

So the picture only shows one. The other closet is full of dirty clothes. These closets are (were) the only thing private for me this month. They're the only thing I can lock. When I'm not home, the door to my room remains unlocked. I've recently figured out the door to the entire apartment remains unlocked most of the day too. The care takers are there 24/7, but I've seen other people around. Some look like cleaners or delivery people. Others I'm not so sure about.

I'm pretty sure I'm safe from the caretakers. When all you have is a thin mattress on the floor and two outfits to wear week in and week out, what would you do with some other dudes stuff? There are also 3 posts of guards you have to get through to get to the elevators.

Four weeks into it is hardly the time to worry.
