It's 2012, which is the strangest shit imaginable. Like, stranger than 2000. Maybe not.
Here's how it's started:
- I am still completely jobless
- I almost sliced an oval shaped chunk of flesh from the pad of my thumb using a corkscrew to open a bottle of my least favorite wine; I stopped just in time to salvage it
- For the second time in as many years I have destroyed a phone by dropping it into a toilet
- There is still a fair amount of construction to be done on the house after a thirty foot poplar tree fell into it during a massive windstorm
On the contrary:
- I am less afraid of unemployment than the upcoming election
- Drinking at least 80% less than I was a year ago feels amazing
- Destroying my old phone inadvertently purged my contact list of so many unnecessary numbers
- The zen of painting the walls of a room has always been one of my favorite things
That I'm still around is the most bizarre fact of all.
peace,
