Used in a sentence: "I'm trying to throw off this overarching theme of death that's shadowed me for the second half of my recent vacation, but it seems like the universe had conspired against me to make it a death trip."
The impetus -- I'm dealing with my father's terminal illness diagnosis. But here are the other things that happened at the end of this trip ... while visiting the gravesite of a loved one, there were three other separate funerals going on at the cemetery ... I felt like I noticed every single piece of roadkill on the entire drive home ... I was almost squeezed out on the PA turnpike by a tractor trailer truck exactly like the one in the picture -- from the Batesville Casket Company ... and I was even listening to Sugarland while driving through Indiana of all places.
I am so ready to shake off this cloud of dark thoughts ... and return to my usual cloud of snark (with a bit of a twisted dark humor still intact).
UM ... SO THIS GUY SEEMS EVEN DARKER THAN I AM ... MAYBE THE INDUSTRY?:
