i showed up late last night to the living room and was surprised that fools for april had every table full. i figured it would be half empty because it was cold and monday. i got there just in time to see a loyal fan pop the question to his girlfriend. before he started the last song, dov said a friend of his had an announcement. the boy got down on one knee and said you are the best thing that has ever happened, please marry me. awe, how romantic and what a story you’ll be able to tell your grandkids. congratulations, you will live happily ever after because you are the chosen ones.

last night i was alone at a table full of people who i don’t know and the thing they all had in common was the same high school. the boy across from me said i look like a black cat and i told him he was lucky for crossing my path. i wonder how many of my nine lives have died. superstitions are interesting to me because there are so many random things that cause them. i’ve accidentally walked underneath ladders and i’ve broken mirrors on purpose. i’ve spilled the salt, crossed table knives and forgot to knock on a wooden surface. i have a white rabbit’s foot key chain but i don’t think it was very lucky for the bunny. it is impossible not to step on cracks and i’d burn myself before i lit three cigarettes with one match.
