The Worm

Yes; I agree with the Dreamy One. And more so. It is alright to let some nights slip into the mornings; to watch the sun and the birds rise and greet the day with them, lost in alcohol and a sea of drunken stupor. It is not wrong to empty your room so that the guests can have more space to dance, even though that would mean a lot of cleaning up in the morning. It is a part of life to, once in a while, wake up in the morning/afternoon and wonder where the fuck your stuff has gone and whose shoes, cell phone, drinks, food, is lying in your room. It is acceptable to live in a pigsty, once in a while, because with revelry comes a price - that of the hangover the next day and the work piled up by a night which turns into a morning listening to all those songs you thought would never come back to haunt you. To wish for someone to be there yet know that it's all going to be ok. To have absolutely no idea how you are going to take up all the mundane tasks that the new day throws at you. I think, in the long run, and all things considered, that life should be lived. Not gone through, not worked through with its countless trivialities and responsibilities stuffed down your throat. That's why it's called living.
