jet slag fades to pink





(like this only moreso)


back in the 80s i was in a very famous tv show
la la la lala la lala
well
not really

but i did temporarily suffer from a very rare condition
in fact it was so rare
that i was the only one to have it
and it was at least partially brought upon by myself

after a holiday to somewhere very far away
i decided to stay awake for the whole 25 hour flight home

a couple of days later i went back to school
and teacher got me up in front of class
to talk about my experience

it was all going well
i guess
until i noticed a pink blurriness at the periphery of my vision
which grew until i could see no more
and i checked out


coming round i was taken to the nurses room
where the usual fussing went on
and the nursey explained that i might have something called
jet lag

but
being a headstrong little shitbag
and having heard talk of the condition that can follow long trips
i grumpily childsplained to her
it wasnt called jet lag
it was definitely called
JET SLAG
and i had the best case ever witnessed

teacher and nursey continued to fuss
and to insist it was jet lag
but i was having none of it from these amateurs
i was an international jet setter
who was wise to the ways of the world
(he wont hurt you)
and exclaimed they simply had no idea what they they were talking about
whereas man of the world knew the lot
AND
i had JET SLAG

I tried to read this to the tune of bojack all the way and singularly failed. Glad your jetslaggage cleared up in the end. Happy 2020!
