mundane me
Today I am boring. I don’t know what the problem is. It’s one of those days where I am restless, a nothing-can-make-me-happy kind of day. I hate these moods of total, complete apathy. I couldn’t muster up a passionate emotion if you paid me. I can laugh, but I am not funny. I could cry, but I am not sad. I am boring, mundane, average, blah.
I need to do something to shake me up. I need some drama. I need to feel something. That’s the problem right now, I feel nothing. I am numb. Why? Why? I don’t get it. How does this just happen? I need something, someone to rattle my cage. I so desperately need a cage-rattler.
What can I do to shake things up a bit?
This is a dangerous mode for me to be in. usually I do something really, completely stupid. I don’t want to do something stupid, but usually that’s what I do when I get like this. Reckless, dangerous stuff comes from these moods. I am getting too old for that, aren’t I?


You needn’t do anything too crazy. Just fire up the blender and make daiquiris, rent a dumb movie that you always were curious about but never had the nerve, or go for a walk in a park.
Alternatively you could drive down to the ‘hood and buy a prefilled crack pipe. If you do, let me know how it works out.

You will go pack your suitcase, then call your boss and tell them you’re taking the next few days off. You’ll get in your sister’s car and you’ll drive to SLC where you will proceed to be my friend. You will then go home all satisfied that you did something zany and impulsive. It works for me.

Alternately, you could jump on a plane to Minnesota…

02 Jul 01 at 9:59 pm #i hear ya sister. that’s why i said they were dangerous.
02 Jul 01 at 10:28 pm #I actually really like SLC mr. skattie. I don’t think I’ll be looking to escape anytime soon. It’s such a refreshing change from the east coast. Maybe jodi wouldn’t appreciate it though, not being an east coaster.
