The Upside of Falling Down. The Mysteriously Missing Coffee Mug. This entry was posted on March 3, 2015, in AMYgdala-la-la-land. I got to work, and I couldn’t find my mug anywhere. To add to that, there weren’t any other mugs or cups or anything that could feasibly be used as a beverage container anywhere in sight. At that point, something funny happened to my body. This picture is recycled from a previous post, because it seems that more than one thing causes horns to sprout from my forehead. 28 thought...

A young man's exploits into the big bad world of work, romance (or therefore lack of it), and the meaning of life! Life Is Not Always Greener. December 8, 2014. January 1, 2016.

The passage reminded me of a section of. And above all there is something v...

Graham Moore gave an exceptionally inspirational speech and I, feeling no desire to be amongst them whatsoever, wrote about my blog award. Albeit a week ago), and I am delighted. Even though I didn’t accept this award at an extravagant awards ceremony wearing a gown the price of a...

A Note About Falling Down | Lucky Wreck
https://luckywreck.com/2015/03/01/a-note-about-falling-down
The Upside of Falling Down. A Note About Falling Down. This entry was posted on March 1, 2015, in Notes and Quotes. And tagged bad ass. I made another quote graphic. But, this time, I’ve stooped to a new low and quoted myself. My attempts to cope with falling down in the past haven’t always been fruitful, so I made a better plan:. A person of formidable strength or skill. Someone who possesses superior intellect and wit and understands the reason behind and the purpose for satire in life. March 2, 2015 a...
