Today's OneWord: Excluded

I wasn't going to lie: I felt absolutely excluded from my group of my friends in recent days. Maybe it was because of the weed, or the booze, or the fact that my car had broken down. Maybe I seemed useless to them. I had lost my value. I had been a valuable tool in the box, and now I was broken and battered.

So much for any sense of friendship circle. I sat down in front of my computer and opened a can of soda. Alone.
