When I look at the stars I think of my TV.
It will end up somewhere that I will never visit.
note: I’m not trying to be pessimistic … maybe I will visit the stars one day … but I’m sure I’m not going to visit my crap TV.
double note: when the space shuttle Challenger blew up everyone was shocked, but my mother said, “What a way to go.“
I don’t know what that has to do with anything, but it’s something.
triple note: I may have put on 4 entries today for some reason that I can’t explain easily.

notes to myself #59
You will become a lot of things you rebel against, but it’s not all bad: time is a harsh mistress … but fair.

Your Mum sees the positive in things

Your mom may have had a point. You could be on the Challenger… or end up in the trash like an old TV. Now there’s a depressing choice!

Thanks for the comments.
Tony: my mother kept me around so she must have been able to see the positive in things: she must have had very good eyesight. hee hee!
Donald Diddams: I thought I bummed myself out with this post … but you’ve done an even better job. hee hee!
Doraz: there is a little truck with a big loudspeaker that cruises around the neighbourhoods on weekends calling out for old bicycles, tvs, computers, refrigerators, air-conditioners, …
Now I know where they take the stuff.
I’ll just take my stuff there and throw it on their pile when no one is around.
S. Le: sorry. I’ll try to think of happier thoughts for a while.

Tasneem R: I only think of my tv when I look at the stars … I’m a bit selfish.
