Have you ever noticed...

How you have no fucking idea what's going on? Oh, I don't just mean in the world around you, I mean... Well, yeah, the world around you, your life, your head? Because it's all interconnected, isn't it?

And it's all just so very weird.

No, really, have you never noticed this?

Like, how you work with someone, and then you realize that after having sat with them over numerous unpaid breakfasts and even more paid lunches that you have no idea who they are, what makes them tick or why they even bother to get out of bed in the morning?

Or how your mind wanders when you're really bored, like when you're on transit? Like how you'll start staring at that person sitting across from you on the subway, the one with the really freaky-ass shirt... (And yes, I know it's a rugby shirt, and no, I don't care if/what team it belongs to, and please don't get mad that I stole your image, no one's reading this anyway ;)

Anyway, then you start wondering why that person chose that shirt, and if they knew then or have since figured out that it's ugly? Is that why they look so freakin' miserable? Did they just figure it out now? Are they sitting there thinking "That person keeps staring at me. Why are they staring at me? Can they see the ugly?"

Or, like, do you ever lie awake at night giving yourself polyps 'cause you're sure the government's out to get you, steal your money, your soul, even your husband? 'Cause I may be reading too much into this, but Cosmo should be able to work any day now, but it seems like Canada's just dragging it's feet. And of course the TV station where he volunteers has well-paid low impact jobs posted right freakin' now... Jobs that any monkey can do and any creature capable of higher thought would be excited, nay, thrilled to do?

Oooh, did you ever think this was probably the truth of the matter even though god and science told you otherwise?

Do you ever find yourself saying "Hey, is this bad? Smell it." Or "Oh, that's gross, wanna see?" Or "My arms hurt so badly after typing for 10 hours a day at work transcribing other people's words, I should go home and blog...?"

So yeah. Not much point, but I was wondering if anyone else ever had that...
