So last night when I was trying to go to bed I kept hearing what sounded like someone beating the drums at odd intervals. I was tired so I didn't go see what it was for a while, I just thought it would end. After a bit it got more intense and frequent and I was annoyed enough to on some pants and walked outside. The city was putting on a giant fireworks show, and I caught maybe the last 5 seconds. And I thought to myself, this is a metaphor for how my life has been going the last couple weeks.
