Consistency

Today’s Activities:
  • Dither about whether to go out job-hunting or to wait for the results of the interview I’ve just gone to.
  • Volunteer to go with my brother to beat back the demonically spreading aspens in the backyard.
  • Nearly have a heart attack when the cat bats at the clippers.
  • Go inside, stoically ignoring random pain shooting through skin. This is a normal response to being around junipers for me—merely brushing up against juniper causes me skin irritation and pain.
  • Notice that pinky is particularly painful.
  • See enormous splinter lodged in pinky.
  • In the way of Schrödinger’s thought experiments or Wile E. Coyote physics, register WAY MOAR pain now that I can see the splinter.
  • Dig splinter out of finger with carelessly sterilized needle and tweezers—while answering the phone.
  • Decide that that is quite enough yard work for the day.
Yeah, I’d say the day has been seized. Can I go in now?
