Some days, the music isn't so good...




Some days, the music isn't so good...























Some days are...

...how many more toes can you slam into something.

...can I break the same fingernail again but down even further?

...two broken glasses and a bowl.

...when your toothbrush goes flying and lands in the toilet.

...destroying your toast getting it out of the toaster.

...it's raining slush outside, and your driver's wiper freezes up.

...the garbage can blowing over.

...the toilet overflowing.

...something getting spilled in the bottom of the oven.

...long workdays because two people didn't show up.

...you're out of coffee.

...the milk jug is empty.

...sad.

...you can't seem to hold onto anything.

...your mouth runs amuck.

...the world is just too peopley.

...everything you eat tastes like shit.

...you can't shit.

...going against everything you were trying to get out of your life.

...you are eating all the ice cream.

...lying to hide the truth from yourself. 

...like the feeling you keep repeating a harsh lesson you can't learn.

...just wanting to drive, and drive, and drive, and drive...

...the music isn't loud enough.

...you missing people who hurt you.

...just sucky.

But then, some days...

...your feet get you through the day.

...and your fingers are nimble and your hands strong.

...those dishes were well-worn and didn't owe you a thing.

...that toothbrush has simply seen better days.

...the trashed toast forces you to make a healthier choice instead.

...you finally take the time to change out those old wipers.

...the garbage was all bagged--so, no mess.

...the overflowing toilet is means that something needs to be fixed.

...you just need to clean the oven, so then you can make cookies!

...your co-workers are so grateful for all your help.

...hot tea simply tastes better.

...needing milk also reminds you to get eggs, bread, and butter.

...the sad reminds you of all you have to be grateful for.

...when you break things, you learn to slow down and be more present.

...some things need to be said, it is ok if they come out wrong.

...the crowd, though strangers, reminds you, you're not alone.

...trying new food is what your body is asking of you.

...you shit too much.

...perspective is everything.

...the ice cream never tasted SO good.

...the truth clears things up.

...the lesson finally makes sense.

...the drive reminds you of all the little things, and then some.

...the music is all the right words.

...bed people show you how far you've come.

...sucky can be ok.
