today is the greatest day in the history of the world

ofcourse it is-even though my eyebrows could give martin scorcese a ride for his money, even though in a shortwhile i have to give up my borrowed car,even though my girlfriend is miles away and i cant honk her gorgeous nose-irregardless of all these extraneous factors and even though i'm not entirely certain i used the word irregardless properly i am here to say that hands down today is the greatest day in the history of the world.

why?

why?

lets see...because i got up this morning. because everytime i've walked past a mirror today there i was. because i know that if i check my inbox there'll be hullos from friends and the same on my voicemail. because last time i looked out the window-which was just a second ago the sun was shining and the sky was blue and i could see a hammock hanging between two orange trees and because in my imagination just now i saw those two orange trees as trees that were orange and because orange is my favorite color. i have a favorite color. i'm almost 47yrs old and i still care enough about my favorite color to refer to it as my favorite color and because i had the most beautiful thanksgiving ever and because theres still more delicious pecan pie left and because i didnt play boggle which i wouldnt have minded so much but the alternative was so much better and so much dirtier too... what a life huh? no different than yours i'm sure and i'm not even being sarcastic.

tomorrow i'll tell you about my insane fear of tuberculosis and why even as a great artist i think i can do without it.
