I've found the only thing that can wake me up
Oh, hi friends!
My head’s a little sluggish. I’ve gotta do this and this and that and how could I possibly??? and can I perform miracles by Monday and and and…
So I went to get some water—hydrate, hydrate always—and the faucet went BOOM. A drip of water and then a huge loud POP and a BLAST of air that knocked the glass cup straight out of my hand.
The construction crew must have turned the water off and back on. The air bubbles fought to get out—and succeeded, scaring the hell out of me. This happens sometimes.
I yelled some four-letter words.
But now?
Now I am very awake. If you need it, I hope something scares you awake, too.
“Life is one big serendipitous game, and it’s up to you to pay attention to the clues."
I was high on pork sandwich and mac and cheese last night when I said this to brother, but he wrote it down so perhaps it's worth sharing.
