My Little Black Cloud

"If an optimist had his left arm chewed off by an alligator, he might say, in a pleasant and hopeful voice, "Well, this isn't too bad. I don't have my left arm anymore, but at least nobody will ever ask me whether I am right-handed or left-handed," but most of us would say something more along the lines of "Aaaaah! My arm! My arm!"- Lemony Snicket (Horseradish)
I'm an optimist. I do believe that eventually everything will be all right, after inevitably wading through colossal amounts of agonizing emotional and physical suffering. It snowed today but I am optimistic it will be sunny again someday, although I worry that I could be sick the day its sunny and not be able to go outside. If it is ever sunny again I would love to go camping. But chances are it would snow. Or we could forget to bring food with us and break the zipper on our tent while we are inside of it and when we call for help the only thing that hears us is a family of bears who also forgot to bring food with them and so they eat us. Then everyone will wonder "Where are the Sortors on this fine sunny day?"

YES! SNOWED AGAIN!! GRRR!! I thought I was an optimist too (until today's rude awakening!) It was a hard day over here! But thanks for helping me laugh it off!

Wayne, for your own protection I deleted your comment, although I did find it humorous and probably accurate.

Wayneman said...

As I expected. Cool, I actually had a comment deleted! You, of course know I'm kidding and I appreciate that you have my best interest in mind.

I LOVE the Goth Confession section. You have such a knack for understatement. I was TORTURED with uncontrollable laughter. You should compile them into a book...Give Lemony Snicket a run for his money.
