Amazing things have happened

Things the likes of which I could never have predicted, things that HAD they not transpired, would never have happened have happened today, and they happened in a way deserving of poetic imagery, metaphor, and art.

The above is a joke! Ha! It's time to laugh now, because my life is still quite boring, like God has writer's block.

Today I ate miso soup, mistook somebody for somebody else, watched a hot red sunset over a milky white lake, thought of a stupid science fiction concept (that we all have a doppelganger made of pure antimatter, somewhere out there in space, and they are hellbent on finding us and canceling us out with them), petted a very large dog, and watched a strange art awards show. The audience laughed collectively and loudly at anything the MC said, although he wasn't trying to be funny, and the man who won the 25k in moolah lost his voice and gave a one-minute "speech". Some people, on the way out, were obviously annoyed about that, but I still feel indebted to him for saving me from horribly boring boredom. Then I walked around a lake and counted my steps for part of the way. I got up to 765. Then i went home, wished I could break into the construction site (there's a little black door in the gate they forgot to lock) but didn't because I'm a pussy, and watched really old Jhonen Vasquez Q&A youtube videos in a happy haze.

...Oh, and I learned that I've been mispronouncing "homage" for all of my life. It's really ohhmauhjhhe, not haaawwmidge.

That was my day. You can stop reading now.

Your day sounds like it was better than mine. Unless you also fainted, became paralyzed with fear, cried for about an hour straight, paced ceaselessly for an hour straight, and hugged a bunny.
