your junk’s in your hand
it happened again. its been years since. just discussed this the other night with someone.
im talking about when youre all looking around for something that you had in your hand the whole time. im pretty sure everyone’s experienced this, and im pretty sure every one of those people have discussed this phenomenon with someone, so really, im not bringint anything new to the table here. its just so crazy. feel like a total dumbass when it happens.
went to do tha tooth brushin. first thing i grab is the toothpaste. then, i start looking for the toothpaste where it normally is. im like “wtf, who moved the toothpaste? it wasnt even closed to empty so it cant be thrown away.” so i start looking through all the drawers and under stuff and cant find it. then i check the trash can where i already convinced myself there was no way it could have ended up. thats when i decide i can start looking through those drawers much more efficiently if i just set this tube of toothpaste down…and at that moment i was so disappointed in myself i didnt really wanna brush my teeth anymore…but i did.
that reminds me of something i heard a wise man say the other day to an acne-ridden teen: “when you look in the mirror in the morning, you’re not only looking at yourself; you’re looking at what the rest of us have to look at alllll day long. so freshen up!”
guess that means i should wear a hat until i stumble across a haircut. not exactly the better things to stumble into. you should be sitting still.
p.s. goddamn phone. i wish i knew where he was.
