Every Day

I was brushing my teeth today, staring intently at a couple of washcloths in my bathroom.
On one of the tags, it said Office Blue, and I thought, "That's a weird name for a color."
Just for kicks, I looked to see what color they had named the white one.
Artic White
It then occurred to me that they had spelled arctic wrong.
Unless, of course, they're referring to the Anaheim Regional Transportation Intermodal Center.
(said like Barbossa) But I doubt it.

By the same token, I'll be going through files at work, and I'll occasionally see one that reads Permenent File.
And then I'm like:



Speaking of work, I'm pretty sure by now you've probably heard the story of how my final CPA exam went worse than expected.
Like, a lot worse.
And the word "bawling" was probably used in fabricating this story to ye, but I assure you, no "bawling" occurred. This is the term that my family loves to use whenever someone's voice gets even the slightest bit shaky.

I did weep, though. Just like Jesus.
Would have.
If he had taken the CPA exam and did as bad as I did on it.

"OMG HOW BAD?!?!?"

I don't know.
I did some ratio analysis, though, and since my expectations are always lower than reality, there is a slim chance I might actually pass, and we'll all just pretend this never happened and life will go on as normal.
If not, well, I didn't really want to be a CPA anyway. Then again, that means my last three scores were all for naught.
Seems about right.

I wonder what it's like to do things that actually matter.
I bet it's, like, exciting.

Should've been a cowboy,
