10 Paces then DRAW
George: This is where I felt it the first time. The universe was cocking the fuck-with-me gun. (Dead Like Me 2003)
_________________________________________________________________________
It never fails. Once you start feeling settled in your life... once you start feeling like everything couldn't get ANY more complicated in your life... the universe pulls the "fuck-with-me" gun. It is the thing that ultimately shoots you in the head because you actually are starting to feel good about something. The universe thinks to itself (or it would if it were a conscious living thing) "So and So's life is looking too easy. Or maybe it isn't complicated enough. OR (and this thought would probably be my personal favorite) I'm bored... let's see what happens!"
It is the show down between you and the universe. You standing on one side of the street and the Universe on the other. You are only armed with your wit and common sense. The Universe is armed with the "Fuck With You" guns. Whether you survive or not is all up to you.
Recently the universe has been winning. I think because we have two different fighting styles. I'm facing it head on and the universe is playing guerrilla warfare. It hits you from all angles and God only knows how you are going to survive. I'm learning very quickly that I need to be light on my feet and tough as nails.
Some information has been dropped in my lap that hit me like a bombshell. I was speechless and then I started to freak out. Only in my head. The people in the room could NEVER know that I was freaking out. What would I say? What would do? Why does this shit happen to ME?! Haven't quite figured out that one yet....
All I could say was, "That's great" while on the inside I'm going "WHAT THE HELL?!" So here I stand facing off with the universe again thinking to myself, "This is going to hurt when the gun goes off". I can only hope that the "fuck with me" guns misfire or at least miss me.

Oh, after I had gotten some of the facts straight, I knew you were freaking out. I also understood that you couldn't really show that you were freaking out, but I could tell.
