What is More

As preferable as it is to have time to relax, one benefit of being dog-tired and stressed, as I now am, is prolonged absence from the national conversation. I am continuously and genuinely worried about how my day-to-day life will turn out. Even now, I've just let go of the Monday vine and have no hold of Tuesday's. I do not enjoy this. Especially not when I'm grinding out hundreds of miles a week, week after week. It feels bad. And yet, the deep grooves of civic mindlessness feel just a little less worn today, and that's some kind of relief. At least, it's been a while.
