misery ....

leaf.jpg


years ago when living in minneapolis i worked in a call center with an amazingly hilarious guy Jesse; he made the experience tolerable and we found ways to laugh our asses off through out the day in the midst of the misery

when tim and i were leaving to move back to madison, jesse gave me a book called "Misery" by Suzanee Heller. I've kept this book over the years and when things seem to be getting just a little too much i pull this out and laugh because of who gave it to me and because of the content. the illustrations are awesome!

it's amazing how people can touch your lives in such a short period of time...jesse and i lost touch and i wonder where he is now....


~ misery is not being able to sleep at 3am
~ misery is not being able to sleep and not being able to just crank the stereo and dance because that's what you really want to do
~ misery is feeling constipated
~ misery is being cold even when you're wearing a sweatshirt, t-shirt, sweats and slippers
~ misery is having a head cold for over 2 weeks and still not being able to breathe through your nose
~ misery is blowing your nose through 5 boxes of tissues
~ misery is waiting
~ misery can be fun at times when shared with someone you love

Are you feeling miserable? Imagine making contact with him again? And what he will have to say to you? xx
