The meanest of the mean jokes.

So I have this theory that some things in life are just mean jokes. Like alcohol for example. It's fun, and after you've had a few, what's a few more? but the day after an alcohol binge (which thankfully have become MUCH less frequent since getting out of college) is terrible. I have concluded on a few different occasions that a bad hangover must be what dying feels like. And thus, it is one of life's mean jokes. Get the idea?


I think that the meanest of the mean jokes is the fact that things happen when you least expect them to. Relationships, job opportunities, even bad things like natural disasters or car accidents. It's like you can spend forever pining over a guy or stressing about a job offer, and the second you stop worrying about it and enjoy where you are at, that is when things come together. The moment you get comfortable is the very moment that things change. I will never understand it....


On one hand, its a good thing. It's almost life's way of forcing you to take a step back, breathe, and appreciate where you happen to be at that particular part of your journey. Which is great, and I like that about it. However, it is not so great when that thing you happen to be obsessing over and wanting is on your mind 24/7 and all you want is for whatever issue it happens to be to resolve itself. But what's a girl to do?


I'm sure though, that this mean joke is actually a great lesson in disguise. A lesson to live life one day at a time, appreciate the things you have and have faith that things will fall into place as they are supposed to. Which they always, ALWAYS do.


But that doesn't mean it isn't frustrating... ;)
