What are the odds
This collection of atoms came together
And had these thoughts?
What are the odds
You look at me looking at you
Could we be just zeros and noughts?
What are the odds
The serpent swallows the tail
Clinging to dogmatic belief?
What are the odds
Surrounding the enemy with gun towers
Will bring both factions relief?
What are the odds
A three-legged horse
Stumbles forward to win the race?
What are the odds
These atoms are once again returned
To be in their rightful place?
Today I’m feeling:
I thought I would be able to sleep last night but by midnight I was awake again so watched some cricket and read until about 2 am when I finally fell asleep.
A couple of hours after waking up again I’m still blurry. I kind of hope I can struggle through and when I get back to Thailand I can more easily fall back into place with the time change again.
Today I’m grateful for:
An easy day of not having to rush around to meet people. It’s a rainy grey day too so, perfect for minimal action and some TV watching.
The best thing about today was:
Finding a George Carlin documentary on the Foxtel box that they have here where we are staying. Like any kind of cable or stream service, there are a bajillion crappy things to scroll through until you find some gold.
What was out of your control today and how did you handle it?
We caught a bus out to Leichardt to try some Italian food and as we were approaching our stop the bus suddenly veered off down another street and so we got off at the first stop and had to walk back in the rain and cold. Amy complained a little but it wasn’t very far and was soon cheered up by seeing a beautiful blue point cat in a window as we went by.
Something I learned today?
I checked out the new Kings Comics location in Sydney, now in a very nice building on Clarence Street. I saw a copy of Love and Rockets #13 there which means I have a couple of back issues to read to catch up on it.
What is one area of life I’d like to improve?
In general, my life is pretty good. Getting some minor health issues addressed would be useful such as my dodgy teeth, eyes and feet. That’s about it.
