On Today

One thing that has always bothered me is the fact that it's always today. I wrote this today, and it doesn't matter how many days pass before you read this you'll be reading this today. That's easy to understand but maybe this isn't: I made plans to write this yesterday (when today was tomorrow) when I thought yesterday was today (before it became yesterday) when tomorrow became today I realized that tomorrow never comes so I better write this now.

I state here that I am not a procrastinator, I really did think tomorrow would come. The thing is if yesterday becomes today and tomorrow never comes then in the words of the immortal Janis Joplin "its all the same fuckin' day." Janis was wise before she died on a particular today. What a trip, eh? I'm doing a research paper on her tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow when will I ever get anything done? Probably today ... sometime. What's really disappointing is that staying up until midnight isn't that dramatic and it's only confusing for a moment.
