Lawrence is Special

Lawrence is special in that he'll get completely obsessed with something and will just immerse himself in it nonstop until he gets sick of it, at which point he drops it like he never knew it existed. He does this a lot with food. When he was younger he loved wonton soup (it was apparently his favorite thing to eat) and had it every time his family ordered Chinese food from the time he can remember till he was about 10. He then got sick of it, and has refused to have it since. It's been 13 years since he last had wonton soup.

Lawrence's new obsession has been this video that he's been playing nonstop since the weekend. He can't get enough of it, and manages to laugh out loud every time he sees it. He can't stop talking about it either. He's been browsing through forums talking about this video, and is happy that they show that "J.T" has been earning "street cred" with this video. As I type this, Lawrence is reading a "Memphis Flyer" site that's saying something about "J.T." and the video.

The only saving grace right now is that he has that history of eventually getting sick of his obsession and just drops it. I hope that happens soon. Although I find the video hilarious, I don't know how many more times I can watch it. Please do watch it though yourself because (1) it actually is funny, but more importantly (2) so you can imagine what it's like to live with a very special Lawrence. :)

Note on picture: Handsome Lawrence is sad that a pigeon pooped on his pants while walking along 59th St at the southern end of Central Park. He thought he had sidestepped being pooped on since he noticed the poop as it was on its way down, but he wasn't fast enough in moving out of the way, as evidenced in the picture above. Lawrence is special. :)
