Beets or Internal Bleeding? 09/04/2010
It's fun to start the day with little self-questions like "which blue toothbrush is mine, again?" or "what about coffee makes it so delish and addicting?" or even "could I reach bermuda on a pedal boat?" One question I was ill-prepared, yet forced, to ask myself this morning in the lavatory: Wow, hold up. Is this because I ate a beet salad yesterday for lunch, or is this internal bleeding from being hit by a cab last week? Both are valid realities in my recent past. I've started eating beets because they are healthy. I've started getting hit by cabs because I ride a scooter in New York City. Both situations make your insides turn red. I ask myself the big questions before I go to sleep. Where is bin laden? Will I get to see an angel while I'm on earth? Why is glitter not edible? When will native americans rise up and take back the night? |
