"today was a good day"

why is that saying so significant?

fucking hell, it was on the back of Lorenzo's t-shirt whilst i was in Italy. i was not enjoying myself there, and my cousins took me out and i met Lorenzo. the italian man who was everything an italian man is thought to be. arrogant as fuck, but he liked talking to me, i liked to listen. he turned around to get me a drink, i look at his t-shirt and it says

"today was a good day". hmm i think, today WAS a good day.

just now, reading the wall posts on Insomniacs Anonymous,
on June 26, 2008 at 1:28 in the morning, i wrote the following:
"BOO FELLOW NIGHT LURKERS!today was a good day and i would like to inform the night of it! woo hoo!"

how odd that i had told myself "today was a good day", before i ever laid eyes on the back of Lorenzo's t-shirt.
