there was   a time in my life when i didn't know that gin existed. at some point    someone put a gin and tonic   in my hand, and i said with delight, "this is so refreshing!" i bought the cheapest gin i could find until i heard snoop rapping about tanqueray and i thought to myself, "what the hell is tanqueray?" come to find out, it is a delicious gin, in a classy green bottle with a red stamp. how lovely! things were just getting better! i love limes, and in no time, a lime version of tanqueray, "rangpur" arrived, and i discovered DIET LIME TONIC life seriously couldn't get any better. let's look at the mathematical equation, shall we? gin=refreshing=limes=tanqueray=snoop=all around good times marvelous. let's fast forward a decade. gin=tanqueray=tears. i honestly wish life was not this way and i could go back to the way gin used to be. and here is the point i'm trying to get to - i'm so blah ...    so u n i n t e r e s t e d so unfocused      that the thought of going into a store   to get tonic was too much for me to bear. seriously. so. i'm drinking gin. with ice. and a little straw. i have limes in my fridge, and lime juice. i looked at both of these items, and could not summon the strength to move either from the fridge to the counter, let alone my drink. the next step on the road to the river styx is gin with no ice and a straw. then just gin in a glass. then just gin straight out of the ******* bottle. then i would just eat the beautiful tanqueray glass bottle. that seems to be the jist of things around this place (by "this place" i mean earth) in general. it's entropy. pick one of the definitions - i'm pretty sure that poetically any of them apply. personally, i think heat death sounds the best.
