I asked a friend on the phone today what would happen to someone in my place if they were a real drama junkie? I don't like the drama but it seems to follow me. Take today for example:
-The people repairing my ceiling were removing the ceiling fan when they knocked out the electricity.
-While waiting for the electrician, someone smashed the contractor's truck's window and made off with some of his power tools.
-After the police left (they took 45+ minutes to get here) I said good bye to Jenn as she moved out of Pigtown after 6+ years of service here.
-I emailed Onalee's teacher and all she received from me was code.
-When getting a shower this afternoon I discovered that my bathtub now moves with me.
-While sitting at a stoplight I threw out my back.
This was just today. My friend said the someone who was a real drama junkie wouldn't survive long here because they wouldn't have a chance to be creative and exaggerate much; so much of what happens seems a bit too surreal anyway.
Thanks for reading,
Jeff
