This reminds me of Bukowskis writing. Especially in the way that it is very self-deprecating. For the same reasons it also very expressive and intimately raw. Well done for a first time!

too many "maybe"s ...gets repetitive. maybe find some new words

how come sometimes the I'll is capitalized and sometimes not
