12:30 AM is Probably Not the Best Time to Ask Me About Myself

I consider risk taking to be addressing envelopes in washable marker

On a day with a 70% chance of rain,

Drinking the water in Mexico,

Raising your hand when you don’t know the answer,

And taking your first step.

 

I judge books by their covers,

But reserve the right to change my mind,

And do so, often.

So don’t make plans for this weekend.

 

On one hand I can count the number of people

Who know me well enough to call me on my crap.

They do so with regularity.

And as a general rule,

By the time I’ve properly thought things through,

You’ve moved on.

 

I always listen, read faces and

Laugh at things that aren’t meant to be funny

In the conventional sense of the word.

I will tell you if you’re being ridiculous.

 

And in ten years I couldn’t tell you

Where I will be,

Who I will be with, or

What I will be doing.

All I know is that somehow there is a large dog involved.
