What is “normal”?
Websters Dictionary defines it as not abnormal. Well, thanks a freakin’ heap, Websters. You are SO helpful. To be fair, it also describes normal as conforming to a standard or the common type, and free from mental disorder; sane.
Am I normal, according to these definitions? Uhm… I dunno.
Is it normal to be 40-ish, over worked and under paid, slightly balding, marginally overweight, battling a bad back, bad hips, bad ankles, hemorrhoids, ringing ears, near-sightedness, grinding teeth, nose hair, back hair, ear hair, … ?
Does all this make me normal? Maybe.
A quote I read today says that “normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a car that you are still paying for – in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes and the car, and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it.”
Does this make me normal? Definitely.
So… what’s normal? Are you normal?
