I’m listening to Zen music and trying to strike a chord of inner peace after what turned out to be a long and trying day. Here is what I learned:
- While the walls are thin, they are infinitely thicker than the open air between two backyards as you are ripping your kid a new one for deciding his need for attention ‘right now’ is far more important than the building project I’m doing that, if I step away from ‘right now’ will come crashing down–which it did.
- The garage sensors are apparently below the front end of a car and will still slam the garage door down forcefully and repeatedly with the car stuck in it. Yeah, that happened too.
- Bees like flowers in my front yard. They like them so much that they’ve decided to never leave. Perhaps they’ll seek residence in my air vents. Perhaps they already have.
- Kids still cheat at video games.
- I’m good at a few things and communication does not appear to be one of them. At least not unless I write it down. Then I’m decent.
I find myself unusually negative this weekend, which is why I’m listening to an 8 hr zen track and considering the healing sounds of thunder and rain. I don’t know if any of it actually works without me moving towards a meditative state, but it can’t hurt.
