Thinking

You know when you obsessively think about one thing and you can't get it out of your head? You're staring off into space, you shake your head, as if you can physically knock the thought out. Even slap your cheek, but that doesn't work either. You think, I have work to do, places to go. I should do the dishes. But you don't. Maybe some music will push it out...but no, you're sick of all your music. A book, but no, one page is as far as you get, and what did it say? Who knows? Put it down. Walk around a bit. Try to think about what's for lunch. Nope, still there. You file your nails, put some lotion on. That killed five minutes. Still there. You "watch" TV, but not really. Still there, still there.

Boy, I'm glad that never happens to me.
