  • How To Succeed At Life Without Really Trying

    Because of a previously entered divine contract, I went to church yesterday.

    Being that I was pseudo-raised Catholic, atleast to the point of my first communion and the like, I attended Catholic mass.  The fact that Catholic church is on average 45% shorter than other processions helped as well.

    So, I sit and enjoy the whole mass and whatnot, then comes time to take communion.  I'm not one to pass up free food, so I'll gladly indulge in some holy bread.

    However, right after eating the blessed snack, what do I hear but one ominous crack of thunder.  A little bit disheartening.

    And you know how in movies there's always like a flash of lightning, and then the rain will start falling full strength? And you watch that and you're like "Oh that never happens in real life. The rain starts small and then builds up."

    Well, as we were leaving church, I could hear a strange sound coming towards us.  And all of a sudden, BAM! full onslaught of rain. Unprecedented.

    On the bright side, I didn't spontaneously combust upon entry to the church as I had feared, so I'll continue going and completing the forementioned divine contract.

    Sometimes it's crazy to walk by someone and catch a snippet of their conversation.  I had one of those experiences today.

    I was walking down Guadalupe and came upon some shirtless dude with a giant Chevy symbol tattooed to his neck.  I assume he's one of those homeless vagabond young street urchins, AKA what's wrong with Austin.

    So, I'm walking by and he's talking to some fat dog-faced harlot.  The only part of the dialogue I heard was him saying, "My girlfriend just died."

    He said it so non-chalantly too.  Like the same way he might have said, "I imprisoned a squirrel for dinner but he escaped."

    I guess I caught the wrong end of that conversation.  Dude, even if you're girlfriend did just die, that's no excuse to get a car logo tattooed to your neck and to walk around sans shirt.

    And what do you mean by just died? Is she literally rotting in the alley right now?  I'll put my money on cause of death being overdose.  Or the HIV.
