Lifecheck

   Sometimes I wish my life was a Microsoft Word document because then all my mistakes would be underlined in red squiggly lines. And I could just back it on up if I noticed the line. I need a spell/life-check to immediately alert me to the unsavouriness of my decisions. Immediate is the key word. Waking up on my best friend's couch with a lollipop in my hair, yeah, I know there were some mistakes that led me to that moment. But often, I do not have the mental capacity to predict bad choices, thus my need for life-check.
   Some common times when I could use the squiggly line would be in the grocery aisle, whenever someone asks me if I want a third pint (always dangerous) or anytime between the hours or midnight and four am because that is when my brain turns off and satan takes the wheel. Although maybe in that last one I would be beyond squiggly lines. I might just see the line and be like, "cool, I'm skiing".
   For reals though I find myself fantasizing about seeing the red squiggly line which would ultimately lead me to a more organized, wholesome life. Like a shining beacon, the red squiggly line. I pray for thee's arrival.
