I take brunch and life to be stand-ins for two notions. Brunch as the ability and desire to wish for a lazy day spent as one wishes, desultory consumption of something nice and/or new while in control of our time. Life is the sum-total of all meaning we accrue along the way, including our experiences from events we are thrust into.
