PEEPEL COMEDY

Tonight I was driving home and I had to stop and stare. I was at the corner of Grand and Leavitt overlooking Grand Street Gardens and I noticed movement that didn't seem like it fit in that place....

There was a dude with a red hoodie rolling round on top of the stacked bags of mulch/dirt/whatever. he then stood up and hurled himself on top of the bags like a pro wrestler and rolled around, face downward smooshed into the stacked bags. this happened for five minutes and I just watched.

I tell ya, life is like a movie sometimes. perfect comedy placed in the perfect moments.

ZIPPITYDOODAH WOOO

Last Saturday, I was a fortunate passenger in a Zipcar. I was puttering around, scoping out the innards of this rented auto, keeping myself occupied, whereupon, I opened the glove compartment. In there was a pair of glasses, and a TGI Fridays coupon folded in half, and behold, there was a mini ZIP lock baggie with substance that looked like oregano. I said out loud "is this what I think it is??" upon further investigation, it was indeed a sac of Cannabis, TGI Saturday!!!! We both looked at each other and said "duuuude".

I zoomed back in my mind to the last time I smoked this substance, I clearly remember the feeling of paranoia, fear, insecurity, shame, wanting to get the fuck out of wherever I was, and also the inability to speak in words, and the oddest feeling of a smile on my lips but the feeling of utter panic inside. I also realized that my self image wasn't super duper intact back then, a little wobbly on the self esteem legs, like a newborn lamb.

We decided to put the zippy from the zip in my bag, considering pitching the stuff, but had to marinate on it for a moment.

I hadn't realized that I could laugh so hard where my stomach would hurt and I would lose the ability to use my legs from such laughter. I had the epiphany that this was a great marketing ploy for Zip cars, pretty genius actually!

This little gem from the Universe was a test, to prove to me the transformation of my self esteem from rocky to rock solid, I passed the test with flying colors.

THANKS ZIPCARS!

BEAUTY

BLABBER MOUTH

Do you find yourself confronted with people that are cronic advice givers?

Do you find yourself bewildered by the lack of compassion and understanding from these people and their inability to just shut up and listen?

Something to notice about these people that is consistent without fail.

THE CRONIC ADVICE GIVERS HAVE THE MOST FUCKED UP LIVES
