blah dee blah fingertapping blah

i don't remember my drive to work this morning.

i was wide awake for it, but my brain has already erased it, because it wasn't important. this is what the brain does, it filters out repeated information so you have room for new or important information. it's why everything in childhood seemed to take FOREVER and why time speeds up when you get older. as a child, you are filing new information all the time. every day holds something special. as an adult, routine becomes a security blanket...that slowly suffocates your read on time.

usually, something will have happened by this time in my day, even if it's something like seeing that really awesome saint bernard in the park on my walk into work, or a particularly good episode of the daily show, or reading about some minor drama on facebook.

there are better things. those are just small ones i grasp onto if nothing really good is going on.

but today has been a day of absolutely nothing of interest. i probably shouldn't jinx it, because now something bad will happen and that will be today's big thing. woodknocking and all that. but. this day is like a missing rung on the monkey bars. just a big empty skipover hole.

do they even have monkey bars anymore? or are those too dangerous? i suppose they have to have a big pit of marshmallows and participation awards under them just in case of falling.

i am going to altered aesthetic's dia de los muertos candelight walk tonight. so i suppose that's something.

but yeah. hope you liked my post. i'm going to go be bored somewhere else now.
