On the rebound

Okay, I have consulted the tarot, checked the stars, and read my horoscope (which, as usual, had nothing to do with my life).

I've taken my ass whoopin' and learned my lesson.

I have decided to walk away from yesterday a stronger and wiser person.

I don't know when I'll actually start to feel smarter for having learned my valuable lesson (even if I did do it the hard way), but if TV shows, books, and movies have taught me anything, I know one day I will.

Not dead yet.
