…some days you don’t have two neurons to rub together at the end of the day and all you want to do is post a couple of nice pictures to cheer everyone (and yourself) up because you try to keep the highs from being too high and the lows from being too low (the test pilots referred to this as “maintaining an even strain” according to Tom Wolfe) but it’s hard some days when you were foolish enough to get a little bit of encouragement and then when it gets smooshed like a bug you still have to go through the rest of the day despite the fact that you would really like to find a dark spot to curl up in and while you’re carrying on you see a bunch of bad car accidents near your home and you want to realize that it could be worse, you could be one of those guys, but that’s not helping much and then you get weird phone calls that just piss you off and when all is said and done you need some cheering up and while traditional (going back almost ten years!) internet wisdom says that cat pictures are the way to go you really would prefer dog pictures and you just happened to have found a couple the other day of the Lucky Puppy who was just the best dog in the world ever and you set them aside for just such a situation as this so that foresight is going to pay off in spaces since it will cheer me up to look at them and share them and THAT’s why we have dogs!
