Bad Decision

It’s getting so beautiful out, I said.

There’s too much technology and multitasking in your life, I said.

Slow it down, I said.

There’s a nearly-never-used swingset in your backyard, I said.

Life’s too short not to enjoy the simple pleasures, I said.

You’ll enjoy your coffee more, I said.

How peaceful it would be, I said.

Not to self: when attempting to find a place to sit and be with nature and be all contemplative and unplug from the world, try finding a sitting spot that’s a little more stationary.

If anyone asks, I didn’t spill my coffee; I poured one out for my homies on decaf.
