Dearest Dolores, the second you figure it all out is the second the universe starts noticing you and laughing with the other universes about everything you do from that point forward even now, well past the time when i first got a handle on this whole game the universe laughs it has a strange sense of humor probably laughing that i referred to other universes earlier when, in fact, that would make it a multiverse or polyverse the second you figure it all out is the second you stop trying to figure it all out and you're just another misguided lazy sonofabitch not to mention a knowitall mentioning something after the phrase "not to mention" is something that lazy sonofabitch knowitalls like to do that always gets a good laugh from the celestial audience i play here 5 nights a week tip the waitstaff if you want to be smart, get used to admitting you're an idiot kick your ego to the curb from time to time it's not often your best friend it is however a better friend than an insurance salesman or a used car salesman or a taco bell employee kick it gently just in case you need it someday but let it know who's boss sometimes you have to kick your heart to the curb too i caution only to do that briefly it can forget it's purpose and become nothing more than a glorified ejector pump nothing laughs at that except lazy sonofabitch nowitalls who haven't been there don't spend much time licking your own wounds there are countless others with softer tongues than yours and what can't be treated with saliva can often be cured with kind words Dolores, i hardly know you. i would think you may be a daughterofabitch knowitall if i wasn't a knowitall myself. something cracked inside of me when you first winced while saying my name. since it turned out to be a genuinely good wince, it turned out to be a genuinely good crack. i look forward to your thoughts as much a goldfish looks forward to flakes of dried food on the meniscus of his bowl...as much a deer looks forward to a driver with busted headlights. Soon, Merlin |
