High and dry
Well, things have actually gotten a lot worse for me. So much worse that I'm considering becoming an evil supervillain with a secret identity. I'll change from mild-mannered (if slightly misanthropic) Brian Lenth to evil, conniving Doctor Lazarus; cackling wickedly as I draw up a brilliant plan to steal the sun. Look out, Gotham!
The good news is that I can't possibly see how things can get yet worse. I guess I'll give you the simplified version of what's going on. There's a girl. After a long, long period of me pining over her, she finally lead me on, then immediately, inexplicably changed her mind. And now (this is just perfect), her friend has hooked up with my friend. I really just need some time to pry the metaphorical harpoon out of my heart, and then I'll be OK. I hope. Also, I'm going on vacation; specifically a road trip to New Mexico, next week. That will be a very, very good thing.
The other good news is that the Iowa City Jazz Fest is going on, and I actually went out and had a good time today. There is great, great music in the world, my friends, and two of its names are the Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey and Kenny Garrett.
So yeah, sometimes life is halfway tolerable, but most of the time I just wish there was a God so he could smite me.
