Nothing surprises me?

I've always had many interests, but recently I've started realizing that nothing ever really surprises me - is something wrong with me? There are many things that I look forward to when I imagine them, but when they really happen they always just feel so 'real' and, well, expected. I'm just not surprised. 

Especially when the murder hornets came out - who could really be surprised? 2020 is a mofo

Not a real answer to your post but I feel like 2020 has desensitized me to so much that if an alien walked right up to me and kicked me square in the nads, I'd probably be cool with it and just go about my day. It is what it is.

Dayman?
 

Yeah forreal

I've got a bad disease
But from my brain is where I bleed.
Insanity it seems
Has got me by my soul to squeeze.

Where I go I just don't know
I might end up somewhere in Mexico.
