failing to impress waitresses

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Vancouver, 2002.02.02

I managed to fail to impress the waitress at my somewhat-regular lunch spot, today. It was about 2 PM when I shuffled in, and I was complaining of a hangover. She made sympathetic sounds until I admitted that I'd just be climbing back into the saddle again tonight when my buddy Charlie arrives.

I failed to learn whether we're looking at eight more weeks of winter.

The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, worry about the future, or anticipate troubles but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly.
