fortune cookies and porn

It's not a clever blog title, it's just a sampler platter.

I realized the other day, there are two types of people in the world. Those who keep their fortunes, and those who don't. If you don't know what I'm talking about, well, it's fortune cookies. We aren't very far from the topic line, so try to keep up.

I keep my fortunes, so I'm one of those. The fortune I got the other day states, simply, "Enjoy what you have, hope for what you lack." Well, I mean, that's pretty sound advice, and while I agree with it, it's not really a fortune. But don't get me wrong, I don't feel screwed out of an actual fortune. I think, perhaps, on some metaphysical level, this is exactly what I need to hear right now in my life. I have much to be thankful for, and I should not sacriface that in the face of whatever loss I've been through recently (see the divorce blog, however incomplete it may be). And not only am I still rich with friends, and things, and myself and all that I am, on top of that (!) (this is where it gets good), there is the promise of more good stuff to come. I mean, when you spin it like that, that's a damn good 'fortune' cookie.

On the other side, I told Rebecca tonight, that when we get off the phone, I'm going to put on some porn, get high (I don't get high anymore), and cry. I didn't watch porn either. So I guess all I really did is cry.

Some shit you just can't escape.....

p.s. I saw Opeth tonight at the Wiltern...... they melted my face off. I bow to their superior rockatude.
