What’s wrong?

Tuesday, August 1, 2023

I never know what to say when I’m asked, “What’s wrong?” because I don’t know the answer.

Between my dog’s declining health, my daughter’s anxiety, my ever growing pile of work, my weight and physical issues, the heat, finances, and my ever struggling desire to just hide away, my brain is a mess. You ever seen the movie “Independence Day”? Honestly, if you haven’t… have you been living under a rock? Anyway, you know that scene where the doctor is trying to dissect the alien that he thought was dead, then it all goes to hell and eventually the doctor gets thrown against the glass and the alien’s tentacle is wrapped around the doctor’s throat as the alien uses his body as a transmitter of sorts, relaying it’s message? BTW, you know that the doctor was played by the actor that plays Data in Star Trek Next Gen? No, I’m not a trekkie, I just found that interesting. Where was I? Oh yeah, alien tentacles… anyway, I feel like life’s issues are the tentacles and I’m just the transmitter. Like the doctor, being the transmitter is not very good for my health.

Am I about to spiral again?
