so i suppose i'm going crazy again, but i guess that happens sometimes.
i don't know who reads livejournal anymore, if anyone, and this is mostly just for me to vent, but... let's pretend i have an audience. there's a quote that keeps running through my head, and most of you probably haven't heard of it, but if this is me, talking to me, everyone here has. anyway, it's from the fifth book in the hitchhiker's guide series and goes, "Everybody has their moment of great opportunity in life. If you happen to miss the one you care about, everything else in life becomes eerily easy."
that's kind of summing everything up right now. although i wouldn't eerily easy. i'd say eerily hollow, eerily unreal, eerily like in tv or a movie where someone lives out like three years of their life only to find out they were imagining it and life is so much better and actually makes sense.
or maybe it seems like trying to use a microwave, but you forgot to put in how long you want to keep your burrito in there. you keep pushing start, but nothing happens. eventually the microwave displays something about enter cook time, but it's no use, as in the segment we're pretended you haven't the faintest clue how to use a microwave. perhaps the numbered keys aren't even there. but the point is, it's not working, and it keeps telling you to do something that you're very unsure of. it started with a kind of hinting, but now, it's more like a screaming.
or, do you know that feeling you get when you think you may have forgotten something, but you're not sure what? and then you think and think, and still can't figure it out, and you decide, well, if i can't think of it, it can't be that important. i mean, in the grand scheme of things and all, what is? and sure, maybe it isn't important. the problem is that feeling just doesn't go away. every time i get into a car, get out of one, leave for work, do much of anything, or go anywhere, i always feel as though i'm forgetting something. crazy as it may sound, i've always thought that each of us has a purpose in life, be it great or small, and i feel as though i took a wrong turn somewhere and something is telling me to somehow correct this. and i suppose that's all i have to say about that.
another thing; i was watching scrubs, and jd says something in one episode about everyone having some defining moment in life; a test that shows you who you are.
i'd kind of like one of those.
oh, and you can go back to knowing how to use a microwave now.
