Friends stop by and tell me things.

Hey, what's up?

Every great pain, whether physical or mental, declares what it is we deserve; for it could not have come upon us if we had not deserved it.

So...wait, read it again.

Every great pain, whether physical or mental, declares what it is we deserve; for it could not have come upon us if we had not deserved it. So, for example, it's like there's a little kid that was running and fell down. And the teacher says to him: the reason you fell down was because you were running. And the kid feels better.

So your mind feels better once you have reasons.

Kind of. But, it could have also had a lot to do with one thing happening after the other. Like, the kid just fell and is upset, but eventually the kid is going to feel better whether or not the teacher is there to explain the world to him. So it could have been the reasons that made the kid feel better, but it could have also been the timing...and the teacher's voice.

Yeah, ok. That's sort what happened to me after Celeste broke up with me.

Yeah that's exactly where I was going next.

I already knew, Rachel.

You really need to get a facebook.

Maybe if I have time.

That way I could send you all these links, and I could talk to you easier.

I would never be on it if I had one.

It's like there's this conversation you are not involved in.

But I sort of like not having one. Ya know, it makes me feel special.

Special does not necessarily mean better.

Yeah, but I was raised to think it does so that's what I believe. Man, when I have a kid I'm going to tell him the craziest shit. He's going to be crying, and I'm going to be like: the reason you fell was because there's rainbows on Thursday. And he'll be like: oh, ok. I feel better.

Your kids are going to be so smart. I can't wait until you have kids so that I can do experiments on them.

Why don't you do it to your kids?

I'm not going to experiment with my kids.

Alright, we'll adopt a kid and do all these experiments on it, and if they work we'll do them to our own kids.

What do you think would really happen to them if we do that?

I don't know. They'd probably be really fucked up. ha!
