Forced Nothingness

I left my laptop out of town

Perspective. This felt fun and so important when I posted it on Instagram 2 weeks ago. I’m so busy choosing to do nothing. Then doing nothing chose me.

I left my work bag, that has my laptop in it AKA my brain, at our house in a Idaho. Immediately I was determining driving up to get it within minutes of realizing I’d forgotten it. For better or worse the price of gas put a quick stop to any plans I conjured up.

We already have a return trip scheduled in two weeks, I can do hard things, like wait.

After the panic wore off, and the acceptance that google is finally going to get its way (they’ve been asking me to update all kinds of passwords for years now) it’s been almost a relief to know that even if I wanted to something’s are being placed on hold while I do nothing and wait.

Sometimes we choose our breaks. Sometimes they choose us.

Stick around, things could get interesting, or boring 😂 you tell me.
