You're supposed to think of creamsicles. Are you?
Water is running from my eyes. Conventionally that water is called
tears. But tears usually signify something: sorrow, joy, elation,
agony, prickly pear up the ass, anything aside from nothing. But
not the concept of "Nothing." That can be a legitimate cause for
tears, whether joyous tears or sad tears depends on your outlook.
The water running down my face has no emotional or ostensible physical
root. It's just a nasty by product of having eyes in my head for
nearly 28 years. Every once in awhile the eyes fall out and grapes
roll forward into the sockets like the pinball queue, but otherwise those
eyes are there day and night. And now my faithful ojos are rebelling.
With my job I'll probably end up talking to an ophthalmologist today and'll
be able to ask her why the hell this fluid surplus plagues my eyes.
I already spent an hour of my morning reading, and have to hurry
up with this bit of writing in order to trot off to the bank, cash my sales
tax return check from the state of WI (I don't know why, but apparently
everyone that lived in WI through the year that was 1999 got 180 plus dollars
returned to them as a sales tax rebate. That places a round of drinks
on me), and get some time in down at Eagle's to write and peruse the new
issues of the weekly papers. I haven't had the time to sit and sip
coffee there for quite some time so it'll be a nice change of pace.
I take that back, just because something is different doesn't mean it is
a nice change of pace. I like the pace I'm currently living and anything
outside of that pace is an excruciating pain in the ass like the aforementioned
prickly pear and where it is to be lodged. I need large pieces of
wood or particle board and I need them in the price range of free.
I'm going to do three painting. And they have to be huge. I
can't do detail unless it's on a large scale. These things I must
do. The weekend, of it's two days I get only one off, approaches
as does the end of this week's gibberish.
