I felt so distracted today…

… I did the laundry twice. At least I know the clothes are doubly clean now. I really don’t like being distracted. Though it could be argued that dealing with any sort of creative activity is actually a form of mega-distraction… at least within the conventional world. When one is in the frenzy of a creative project there actually is purpose to the distraction. Not like today… it was useless distraction all around… except for really clean clothes.

A friend recently commented that I have the patience of Job. I do. It’s a trait that I inherited from my father. The common logic shared was that fretting, nagging and stressing over something that is not in one’s control didn’t make it move any faster. There are exceptions to the rule though… tardiness and flakiness. That’s just inconsiderate and plain rude. The irony is that I live in a state where “Dude, I flaked.” is actually considered a legitimate excuse.

Mum Update: She’s been doing pretty well over the last few days. I think getting breakfast to her earlier in the mornings may have something to do with it. Though in certain quarters I know I’m still being judged with not doing enough for her… but that ain’t my problem.

Well, I think that takes care of the randomness for today. Now to catch the season finale of “Heros“.
