No More Drama

"If we had a keen vision of all that is ordinary in human life, it would be like hearing the grass grow or the squirrel's heart beat, and we should die of that roar which is the other side of silence." ---George Eliot

I had a drama filled day and I'm so exhausted by the drama. I have real life to attend to in a no- nonsense, no-bullshit way. That's how I get things done. Yet the drama has to rear its head and screw with the rhythm of what must be accomplished. Yeah, the boring part still has to get done. The details of this broad analogy are unimportant but the key points are this--am I still alive when the morning alarm rings? Do I accomplish what is expected from me in my life and in my work? And hey, is someone still bothering to clean the catbox?

The only thing I know with absolute certainty is that I am still alive and my catbox is sparkling clean.

Drama makes life so difficult. I hope you are able to get thru the drama without too much stress. *HUGS*

Some people thrive on drama. I'm not one of them. I hate it. I'm sure everyone knows your cool head is the one they can depend on.

Can you clean my catbox too? Wait... are we talking about a hypothetical catbox or a real catbox? Because my actual cat needs her actual catbox done.

I hope the Drama disappears soon! Good luck, because drama sucks.

You know, most people and situations I deal with are free from real drama that exacerbates a day. But for those who thrive and prosper on on this, they can exhaust.
