And then, however much later, it is finally happening to you: youâ€™re falling to the floor crying thinking, â€œI am falling to the floor crying,â€ but thereâ€™s an element of the ridiculous to it â€” you knew it would happen and, even worse, while youâ€™re on the floor crying you look at the place where the wall meets the floor and you realize you didnâ€™t paint it very well."

-- Richard Siken
