A Touch Of Being Absolved

“father, i’ve sinned, over and over and over and over again.” -she says by unwritten law
i have the sudden and extreme urge to go to confession. i’m not even catholic. seriously, i’m buddhist. where did this random urge for being absolved of my sins come from?
i don’t even think of myself as a sinner. i like to think that, thus far, i have not led a life in the darkness, that i have even done some good things in this world. so i cannot help but wonder if someone somewhere is trying to tell me something. is the end of days fast approaching? should i repent before we die by fire and ice? i would like to think that we all have a few more years on this planet, but the relentless, nagging thought that maybe quetzalcoatl will return in 2012 and wreak mayhem and havoc upon us puny mortals.
so perhaps it is high time i had some sort of confession. something a little more potent than a five hour long gal pal bitching session about how much i dislike backstabbers (i know, we all do) and how hot jake gyllenhaal is. or something of the like.
or maybe, i just need to confess to the boundless black hole of cyberspace to feel cleansed. so here, few and dearly adored readers, is my confession:
i killed a man in reno… just to watch him die.
(don’t worry, i’m just kidding.)
