Bad Signs

Should I take it as a bad sign that ladybugs have flocked to my door? I have no less than 5 ladybugs on my door and two in the house. I can't remember how that works.
I've been bad recently. I went out and got a ipod shuffle. Here I am again, spending money I shouldn't be spending for a toy. This one doesn't even have any vibration. It does, however, have a wicked cool sound to it.
I'm getting a day off tomorrow. I'm so happy about that. I was running on fumes today. I still didn't walk out the door on time, but I didn't stay as late as my new assistant either. I'm just happy I don't have to be at work at 6 a.m. tomorrow. I'm all about sleeping in, but I'm sure I will be up early anyway. I have to hit the store and pick up some crochet hooks. I seem to have lost mine in the the move. I still have boxes all over the apartment too. This place is a wreck. I'm sure I'm also going to use the day to clean up a little.
One of my old associates called me yesterday. She wanted to let me know she'd seen Bruno on tv talking about a haunted house. Two days before that I heard him on the radio talking about the same damn house and today in the paper he was giving yet another interview about the house. Technically it is a haunted building, but who am I to quibble? I swear the universe pisses me off sometimes. If he and I aren't meant to be friends, or I'm not to play a role in his life, then why does he keep popping up every damn place? It isn't like these aren't things that I could be missing. Life is a matter of moments all strung together, hasn't someone said that? They are often and easily missed moments as well as connections. Why can't I be missing these moments? All it does is emphasize to me that I'm fucking up again in trying to find friends. I can't find people down here to make a connection with that don't work with me or for me.
There is a point. There is a point. There is a point. The fates have to have more to do than just fuck with my life. Don't they?

To quote Wil Smith, "Oh, hell no!" Fate, the Universe, G-d, whatever you want to call it, is always fucking with you. It's all a test, it's all a game. The Universe wants to see what you're made of. How will you turn adversity to your advantage? How will you make friends out if imbiciles? The best one of all, though - and this is ectremely hard to accomplish - how come, no matter how much we fuck with her, why does she always smile and take it in stride?
It's all small shit. We just make it into bigger piles, keep stepping in it, and getting it all over ourselves, crying, screaming, and ranting that this shit shouldn't even be here to begin with.
