This post is pointless.



I am embedding a four-minute video of a tortoise attacking a tomato merely so that I can add the caption “My food is problematic” to it.

There should be more tortoises.

In the first few seconds, I saw this as another Sisyphean metaphor for life (re: your post about shovelling sand and to-do lists). I actually cheered when the tortoise finally got to take a bite out of the tomato.

*grin* Yeah, I had to stay all the way through the video and see if he got it. You go, tortoise!

I like the sand image better than Sisyphus because the sand shovelling is a necessary task for the woman to survive, and it's an endless cycle of her shovelling sand in order to live another day--a day where she must shovel more sand. Plus, it's more like a teeming hoard of small problems than one big one. But I'm digressing.
