My life is so boring AND I FUCKING LOVE IT.

So here are today’s BORING events.

Stone Cold Fox

I just watched Our Idiot Brother with Paul Rudd and laughed out loud, several times, and realize I do not laugh very often, and particularly not a sustained good belly laugh.

I’m trying to figure out why.

David took me to a comedy show a few weeks ago. He was so sweet about it. He didn’t ask, just bought tickets. He thought I’d be able to relate to her humor since she is well versed in 12 Step programs. And it was funny, but I had a hard time hearing her. I wasn’t familiar with her comedy; I didn’t Google her in advance and David didn’t fill me in. So, I really didn’t laugh much at all. Which is very very sad when you go to a comedy show. Because she’s a good comedian. It’s not her fault.

Now, the one thing I do is cry every day. Several times. A few seconds, maybe a minute. Not sobbing, just the tear slippage kind of crying. I’m practicing thinking about other things instead of giving in to the sadness, so it passes. But so many things trigger the tears…
