10 things I’ve gleaned from the first 3.5 hours of my day:
1. Oversleeping sets a ‘blah’ tone to the day.
2. New things are only fun when they function correctly.
3. People hate change. It’s interesting to see how easily some people can be taken out of their comfort zone and how exasperated that makes them. Note to exasperated coworker: New equipment in the mailroom should not be cause for alarm. It has little to no effect on your life.
4. Life seems challenging at times but others have it worse all the time. See NY Times article about the violence in the Congo, currently towards men. Warning: It’s a tough dose of reality.
5. The NY Times itself is starting to read more and more like the NY Post. Cause for concern, yes.
6. I don’t think I’ll ever own a Mercedes. All the crappy Mercedes drivers have turned me off of the car forever. I know, blame the driver not the car, but manufacturers should really screen their customers. These drivers are just bad advertisements for them.
7. I'm convinced traffic can drive a person insane. And no, I'm not being melodramatic.
8. The right song on the car radio can reverse the mental side effects of crappy Mercedes drivers and traffic.
9. The accident on the Taconic Parkway was tragic, but now it's starting to read like a scandal. Why must everything private be up for public debate and discernment. The American people really don't need to know everything.
10. Summer may be coming to an end (summer? I think it was washed away with the rain) but waking up to cool mornings is a nice excuse to get cozy under the covers and cuddle. I’m glad Hal and I are on the same page with that morning routine.
