Silverstein's Law

Dec 22, 2007 11:18

I woke up feeling healthy, well-rested and happy on a Saturday morning of a 4-day weekend, and it occurred to me that we call it Murphy's Law if I were to wake up with a flu on this same morning.

It seemed suddenly silly and melodramatic that we didn't have the converse law, a well-balanced yin yang of circumstance of chance, and I thought of ( Sick by Shell Silverstein )

you tell me, silverstein's law, charmed life

In addition to waking up healthy, happy and well-rested on the first day of a 4-day weekend, I also wanted hot chocolate last week at work and when I went to retrieve some from our kitchenette, I got the last package of hot cocoa.

I actually have a similar law in my life though I hadn't thought to name it yet. I suppose you could call it the Law of Serendipity ( ... )

I love the idea of calling it Silverstein's Law
