Do you think about something too much or for too long?
Overthinking will cast a dark cloud on your sunny song.
Thinking, for many, is hard labor.
And overthinking can be downright debilitating.
Love this quote from cartoonist, editor, and author Bob Mankoff
Humor is the antidote… […]

Can you die of boredom?
Death certificate will read: Cause of death – Meetings!
“She was hanging in there pretty well, but then a meeting did her in.”
Sure, I look alert and interested in this HOA meeting.
I’ll bet my faux expression of keen attention is fooling the overbearing board members and those oddly perky neighbors sitting next to me.
If it weren’t for the rampant yawns, the tears streaming down my face, and the occasional uncontrolled giggling – they’d have not a clue that I’m bored silly.

A wonderful neighbor is a blessing and a friend.
A crazy neighbor is a curse from hell.

The best thing about flying Air France?
Besides le food et la champagne, of course.
The selection of movies to watch!
Highly recommended…
“A journey into the universe of the founders of cinema, narrated by Frèmaux with passion and humour, LUMIÈRE! delivers unfrogettable image and a unique view of France and the world at the dawn of the modern era; truly essential films that illuminate the world of contemporary filmmaking.”
In the 1890’s, The Lumière Brothers invented the Cinematograph.
No flying necessary. Available online.
Fascinating!

Are you drowning in stuff?
Do you dream of a dumpster rental to solve your terrible, horrible, no good, very bad mess?
Are you feeling compelled to tidy up?
Dying to spark joy? […]

The examined life is worth living.
The documented life is worth living.
But is the publicized life worth living?
Life publicized is posted on social media with text, images, and/or video for the universe to see.
It’s all out there – the good, the bad, and the boring.
The mundane and the meaningless.
The real and the fabricated.
