To be completely, ridiculously, and inordinately cliche, life is funny. Funny ha-ha, funny strange, funny...funny.

Funny amazing.

In a nutshell, it's a wonderful and breathtaking thing to learn that life is every bit as mischevious and spontaneous and significant as you always expect that it was. You stand in the middle of an intersection, looking down a road and waiting for all the cars to pass so you can just make it out, and here comes the bus of life to smack you in the ass from behind. And you wake up in a hospital room hooked up to an IV of exultation.

Ironically, nothing really THAT SPECTACULAR or SO GRANDIOSE is going on right now, but at the same time, something always is.

I don't think I can ever wake up angry again. Sure, I'll BE angry and frustrated and pissed the fuck off an infinite number of times, but come morning (or afternoon, as the case often is), it's a tabula rasa once again. Not even that. Just...ALIVE, DAMMIT.

Words are failing me, but existence is not. What a gift. What a treasure chest of platinum dubloons.

Who knows why I'm babbling all this. But hot-diggity-goddamnit, I am.
