you know that nagging voice in your head that butts in and stops you from having fun? what is it called? your conscience. a while ago danny told me stealing was bad karma and as i stood there doughnut in hand, preparing to make my hasty exit, i was reminded of his words. i decided to wait for the cashier to get back to purchase my doughnut. once the cashier got there i decided to buy a scratch off lottery ticket too to cash in on some of the karma credit i thought i had collected by not stealing. to be honest i wasn't really expecting much but i couldn't help feeling sort of excited as i sat in my car scratching my ticket expectantly. bagel. i didn't win anything.
i felt a little bit silly but i didn't make a big deal out of it. "okay," I thought, "karma doesn't work that way."
so i got out of my car to throw the ticket away and, as i made my way back to my car, i slipped in a puddle of oil left behind by another car, landing on my knee on the asphalt, ripping my jeans. when i looked at my knee i saw that i had scraped the skin off and it was bleeding. AND ON TOP OF THAT a guy in his car was laughing at me because i clearly looked like a total jackass.

maybe i am overeacting! i don't know! all i know is my knee fucking hurts.
