Suddenly Consumed

by | Jul 1, 2011 | Not So Much | 10 comments

Like a wildfire that grew from a spark that innocently popped to dry timber from a campfire…

That is how my life feels.

Except, I wouldn’t say this consumption is completely out of the blue.

I have seen it coming. Ish.

Let’s try this analogy again…

Like a wildfire… born from a controlled burn. One in which one had a fire permit, but…

OR…

That one time when you were a kid when you got to hold a duck…

Lucy holds a duck!

But…

Lucy not holding a duck

Can one ever really hold a duck?

That’s sounds dirty.

But I digress.

Or roasting marshmallows seems fun, but deep down we know they are just an awful mess…

mmmmmarshmallow

I had a permit to burn. I was holding a duck. Roasting an extra-large marshmallow:

Job.

Family.

Friends.

Opportunity.

LAUNDRY.

*insert too much here*

Here’s the deal. I know I am not alone. This seems like it is the anthem of to whom (?) everyone (?) I speak to. Of. ?

See? I can’t even write right.

But I know the difference between write and right.

Small victories folks, small victories, yo.

So. Off I go. To record a couple songs (tried last night and they SUCKED… even woke up my daughter… I think she thought I was killing a duck). To a meeting. Then to host a party. Then another party. And I gotsta edit a video about my healing. And to take more pain meds. Oh, and to And my email. And my Klout score… dropping. Not that I care, but… I’m not gonna lie. No one is happy when one’s numbers go down.

But I care more about my kids and my friends. So I need to host those parties… take that pain medication… and I need to do laundry.

THAT NUMBER NEVER DROPS.

I think hell will not be a pit of fire. Hell will be a laundry room.

I AM NOT AT ALL KIDDING.

HELL WILL BE A LAUNDRY ROOM.

The postive part of my post – I am thankful that I have SO much hair. Cuz I need to pull some out.

And do laundry. In case you missed that point.

The end.

But not the end of my laundry.

Because that will never end.

EVER.
