Wisdom Teeth, part 1
I tend to find morbid thoughts like this an odd kind of calming. I think that there’s a superstitious part of me that believes that I will always be surprised by bad news. So, if that’s the case, the best way to prevent something unfortunate from happening is to acknowledge that it might happen. I’m not claiming that there’s any kind of logic to that, but I’ve never claimed that there’s any kind of logic to the way I think.

i am also convinced that if i think of all the horrible things that might happen, i will somehow prevent them from happening. logic, schmogic.

Well, so far, none of the worst scenarios have come true. I mean, it probably helps that I can overthink anything to the point where things I imagine can’t come true.
But that’s beside the point ;-)
