too much

Oct 28, 2008 15:52

I've got too much, just too much to do, I feel like I'm walking through life on a tightrope and every person I come across gives me something else heavy to carry and well today I fell off. But I caught myself with one hand and all I can do is hang onto this wire while I feel like I am being dragged down by a 1000 pound weight, but if I let go I will fall into a giant abyss... probably full of sharks or something... or maybe just empty, and I will just keep falling and falling forever. Or something like that. Though right about now that doesn't sound like such a bad alternative.

Today, while walking through the nasty freezing monsoon weather, I had this image of a tree branch breaking off and blowing into my head. It would knock me unconscious and I would wake up in the hospital, warm and dry. But the first thing I would want to do is jump back up again and run to the theater to do the show, because they need me and I need it. Only thing is, if I just didn't have everything else, or if I just had one less thing, it would be so nice, so nice, I could manage it. But every time I think I've finally got it all under control, someone gives me something else... and there I am, back with the sharks, teetering on the edge of I don't even know what. I think I might just spontaneously combust.
