| | Counting My Pessings...
So, I had to ask my roommate tonight whether or not he thought I was a pessimist. (Please vote below.) To my relief, he said no, that he doesn't see me as a pessimist so much as a realist. I hope so. It seems like I've been too negative lately, but at the same time, while there are lots of good things going on, it just seems like there are some pretty major unpleasantries. And it seems like I've taken to employing the word "Ugh" on a more frequent basis than ever in the past. Ugh. What's wrong with me? I guess it's just one of those seasons. Some seasons are sunny and carefree, some are rainy, others it's like you fall flat face-first onto the gravel and just sort of slide down a big hill, scraping along, and as you pass by some people you get (pardon my use of a spurious expletive past participle) shat on. Sometimes repeatedly. Some people actually run on ahead of you just to get you again as you pass them by the second or third time. I guess there are just some days, or seasons, where it's like you have to grab yourself by the hair to lift your head up and see where you are, but then you're just like, "huh?" because you can't seem to make sense of where you find yourself, so you're just like, "Why?" That's where I'm at. Wheezing out a "But why?" like Mathesar in Galaxy Quest when he finds out that it was all just a TV show. I don't know what that season is called. For some it might be the Job season, but I'm not righteous enough to fit that category. For some it might be LOST Season 3 with the polar bear cages and all the dark inner workings of the Others. For others it might be their El Guapo Season. I think that's what it is for me. My El Guapo Season. At least my El Guapo is not a big dangerous guy who wants to kill me. So I guess it's time to do the Amigo Salute and hit the hay. Sorry for yet another post at the end of which I have to apologize for.
(But do you like how I was able to cleverly work in references to two classic comedies with basically the same plot line only one takes place in Mexico and the other in space?) |
