How the hell did I ever get this old? I still feel like a child.

If God doesn't make mistakes, then it must be agreed upon that He does tell jokes. Every morning, when I look into the mirror, I find I'm waiting for the punchline. Of course, my life just might be the punchline, which would explain why I'm the only one who doesn't seem to get it.

Driving to work this morning, I realized that I had inadvertently left my mind at home, sitting on the couch next to my purse. Me being me, I was more upset about the purse. I could get through the day at work without my mind, and have done so on too many occasions to count. But my purse has my lunch money in it, so I had to turn around and get it.

For a Friday, this sure does feel like a Monday.

Driving into work today my mind was racing and certain ideas and thoughts were like speed bumps, causing my mind to go airborne and land with a thud a few moments later, kind of like the General Lee. Thoughts about doctors and childhood nemeses and family feuds and hypocrisy and man's inhumanity to man danced liked naked pagans around the bonfire of my consciousness, howling and twirling and raising a ruckus.

By the time I pulled into the parking garage, I was mentally exhausted and feeling low on fuel. Caffeine should help; it usually does.

Driving into work today, I left the radio off. The silence in my head was so loud that it drowned out any music my receiver could pick up floating on the airwaves.

The silence in my head is giving me a headache this morning. The silence is so loud I want to cry.

I'm worried I may be losing my mind. Usually when that happens, I find it in the nearest gutter and I can retrieve it. Still, that first moment when I notice that my mind is lost always causes a bit of a panic, with me frantically looking everywhere for my lost mind. It always turns up, either in the gutter or in the last place I remember being and having a rational thought.

Last night, I found it in the couch cushions.
