Oh my.

So if you’ve been following this blog, you pretty much know that I bitch a lot about life, the universe and everything. Sometimes because I have reason to, but mostly just for the fun of it. However, the thing that almost always goes unmentioned is that Alanis Morissette had it right. Life has a fine sense of the ironic and sometimes even tends to spring pleasant surprises on you when you least expect it.

And sometimes it takes someone else to put it evocatively enough for it to really hit you. So today I quote my friend Chalky, who in his own unique style made a comment that captures my life right now. “Every now and then,” he said, “the Universe turns around and says, aww, you look a little low. Here.”
