Got Karma?

I got karma'd yesterday. I went to an open bar night that Eli and some of his friends were performing in. I took the subway in, and when I got to the 46th street stop, there was this guy on the platform who was fucking drugged out of his mind. His eyes were almost completely closed, and he had that look of... umm... a druggie. I walked past him to the end of the platform, looked back, and he fell onto the tracks. Pretty much face first. After a few seconds of writhing on the ground looking really confused about what had happened, he says "man... I fell onto the tracks!". Genius. Then he stood up, looked back at the platform, pointed at nothing in particular and slurs "that shit tripped me!". We finally got him back onto the platform after a few minutes.

I text messaged a friend about that right after it happened... then karma struck. When I was getting off the subway at 11th street to go to the bar, I walked up the steps onto the street, got a little disoriented, and started walking the wrong direction, then stepped on a curb I didn't notice and fell flat on my face in front of a nice old couple I had just talked with. I felt like a jackass. And my knee hurts.

Oh, and Eli's performance was wicked cool.

In this life there is no question of why.

I've listened to this song a lot recently, and should have put it into my recent music poll.

Words I need to learn to live by:

Love like you've never been burnt
Work like you don't need the money
Dance like there's nobody watching
Kiss like your tongue is on fire
Suck like you don't need the money
Sin like there's nobody judging


Oh, and until I looked it up, I thought the last line was sing, not sin... still cool.
