Fractions

[sirnim]

I like to think in fractions.

Of time.

Of space.

Of a point.

...

Add this night to but a seemingly endless list of occurrences which have befallen me before.

I am...perennially...just the tiniest of smidgens from the top.

Why is it that I choke so often?

It seems as though I have never learned my lesson.

I should have learned it years ago.

Perhaps I'm just not cut out to win it all, win the top prize. I guess it's not in my blood.

...

I take solace in the supposition that, perhaps, in a FRACTION of the infinite parallel universes which mesh together into our spacetime, I am the victor.

Parallel universes, have you heard of them? Supposedly, there's a theory that there is an infinite number of universes out there encompassing the gamut of quantum possibilities. So, perhaps, in one of these alternate universes, I can fly! Perhaps I have wings! Perhaps I wear a crown! Perhaps I can teleport sporks with my mind! Perhaps! Perhaps OUR universe here is one of the few out of the entire infinity in which I am a perennial runner-up. I take solace.

...

Who am I kidding?! It's all right, it's all right. No biggy. I've proven myself out in the real world already.

And here's to the end of this most lengthy post!
