Apr. 14th, 2002 10:51 pmYou ever feel like you have bad karma? The Buddhists and hindus say that if you live a good life in a previous existence, that you will be rewarded with a better existence in the next. And...well, if you were bad, you'll pay the price, paraphrasing Warren Zevon. I'm feeling like I committed some mortal sin in a previous life, lately. Like I ate someone's child, or desecrated a church. Something bad, because GOD...I have NO luck. Yes, whoever the hell is reading this, I'm lamenting my existence again. I guess I'm also sick of the "Men are dogs/pigs" thing that I keep hearing from my female friends. I feel like most of us are being written off because of some asshole who just wanted a good lay. Not that I don't want that...good lord, do I...but I'd really prefer it with someone I know and like and could talk to afterwards. I don't want to make it like I'm some deep and complex guy. I'm a simple guy. But I like something a little less shallow than anonymous sex.
Oh. Opening day was the BOMB today. Saw my kids. There's this kid Robert who has spina bifida. We had to urge him to talk when I met him, five years ago. NOW WE CAN'T SHUT THE KID UP! It's so awesome. He was telling me about his new house, it has a finished basement with a 50's style TIKI BAR! That's too cool. And he kept telling me that he and his dad will be refurbishing and keeping the bar. And it's a real revelation to see this kid transform into this voluble little human.
