Feeling Kinda Fuzzy

Having a psychic day today. Just hoping I'm as cracked as most of the other psychics in the world and this is nothing more than depression and cynicism playing games with my head.

Just have an overwhelming sense of dread and a seeming-certainty that something bad is about to happen. Be it here in my own little world or something bigger, more global. Don't take this the wrong way. Well, for what I'm about to say there's no other way to take it than the wrong way. I'm hoping it's the latter of the two.

If the world's about to fall into some post-Apocalyptic James Cameron battle zone, I'm more game for that than I am losing my job or a personal tragedy. In fact, I think the occasion to rise up against tyrannical corporate governments and ravenous mutants is the world in which I will shine brightest. It's clear to me I stand a better chance against monsters and murderous machines than I do cubicles and Corporate America.

That said, there's a good chance I'm just having a bad day.

Speaking of monsters I spent some quality time at Starbucks reading my book about Warren Zevon. I mean no disrespect. There are plenty of his closest friends and family referring to him in much worse terms in there. And besides, much like the demon Catch in Christopher Moore's first novel, Practical Demonkeeping, I like to think of Warren as a loveable monster. You could probably make a similar Sesame Street / Muppet reference there too, but I don't know. I don't think Warren ever went that far the other way in his monsterous ways. Not to mention if I did choose to lump him in with the likes of Elmo, he'd probably come back from the great beyond to sock me in the nose.
