Way back, the semester that I was internng for Noam Chomsky, one of my colleagues told me that I was clinically happy. Like, whatever clinically depressed people have, only in reverse. (Note: post Neuro block, I am fairly certain that not only is this a real thing, I could map it out.) I'm pretty sure she meant it in a less than positive way, but I find it pretty apt. I mean, I am stupidly positive. All the time! And my brain does seem to work along entirely differently pathways than other people deal with.
Oh, other people and your functional neural pathways. How I envy you. What must it be like, having an attention span that lasts multiple minutes in a row?
It is spring, and the birds are chirping, the juniper pollen is rolling over my body in waves, and all I want to do is go climbing. I'm compromising by sitting on my couch and watching bad television. Indoors! At a screen! Not enjoying myself!
This has to count.
