Did you ever pass out, then wake up an hour later, realize that you left a load of laundry in the washing machine and that you’ve gotta wait another hour for the dryer to finish drying the clothes because you don’t want wrinkles, so you have to stay up while the dryer dries so you don’t forget to get it, and then you pass out again and wake up at 5 in the morning and go out to the dryer and your clothes are dry and totally cold and you stuff them into a bag and get them back to your house and dump them on the couch and haphazardly spread them out so they don’t wrinkle, but it’s too fucking late because your clothes are totally wrinkled and you’re tired and ready to pass out but you know you’ll never get a good night’s sleep because of all that laundry shit and all the other stress in your life but on top of it your clothes are wrinkled too?! Yeah, that happened to me again tonight.

Like any kid in the world, my parents put me to bed at a reasonable time, and I threatened to them that when I grew up I’d stay up until a million o’clock and then they’d be sorry!

Well after doing a lot of research on Wikipedia, I learned this week that is no million o’clock and I owe my parents a tremendous apology for lying to them.

Mom and Dad, I’m sorry, and I hope that you’ll please let me back in the house now. I know that you’ve been divorced for over 20 years, but maybe we can work out a timeshare or something.
