Bob Dylan's plaintive voice occupied the entire apartment, echoing slightly because of the lack of furniture and occupants. For now the buzz of saws and conversation was absent, since the people hired to make the apartment's floor Billy-friendly took Sunday off. So far they'd managed to rip out all the carpet, but only the kitchen had its tile in. They still needed to replace some stairs with ramps and put in the hardwood floors in the living room, so the place smelled like carpet glue and dust. Billy still liked it. It was his, private, and he liked being present for the construction. His parents had wanted to fit it out to their specifications before he moved in, but Billy knew it would be years before it was done to their standards and even longer before they talked themselves around to letting him actually live there on his own. He was willing to accept some of the difficulties that came with his independence--his mom dropping by a lot, his dad texting, the nurse that came by twice a day, not to mention the money for construction. He counted himself lucky that he had the bank to take care of himself in this state; it wasn't cheap for the surgeries, the drugs, the care, the equipment. The dizzy spell was just part of the package, and he wasn't surprised. He just made sure he was sitting, closed his eyes, and waited for it to pass.
