Normally I ignore people but every so often in my life somebody will say something to me that sticks, and won't go away. Then it revolutionises my whole outlook on life in some way, like an individual paradigm shift - my norms and assumptions are blown away. It's a progressive thing, and I wonder if it all adds up to my destiny - absolute perfection at the age of 50.
I think one of these earth-shattering things happened yesterday. It'll be interesting to see what happens in the near future. For the moment I appear to be responding by eating Praline & Cream Haagen Daaz, listening to Count Basie and reading a book about cool psychology cases. And that, really, is what the awesome revelation was concerning. I feel funny because for some reason I'm not answering phone calls and lied about not being able to go out tonight - in fact, I want to, but I just can't be arsed with it. I'm pissed off and depressed, so I'm going back to my ice cream.
