The pic really has nothing to do with this post, except that I'd love to be "distracted" by him. So on with what this post is about. Honestly, I was watching the Tony Awards last night and as a friend of mine said last night, "In a way I guess I like the Tonys because they are a little wild and fun not stuffy like the Oscars." I think his statement very well summed up the Tonys. They were a nice little distraction for the night, and honestly, as I was watching them and chatting with my friend, I wasn't really thinking about my post for today.
Then when the Tonys went off, I started on a little creative project that I will be sharing with you guys soon, I hope. But it was one of those things that was just fun to play around with (and you guys can get your minds out of the gutter, I wasn't talking about that kind of playing around). Anyway, after about two hours, I realized just how late it really was, and I thought, I've got to write my post and schedule it before I go to sleep.
However, that's when I checked my Twitter and got a little sidetracked by that, which led me to Tumblr, and now you can get your mind in the gutter because that led to the kind of playing around I wasn't speak of before. But I digress.
I finally decided to type out my thoughts for my post and realized that it was just going to be a random post about distractions. I can easily be distracted at time, especially when I've had a headache for nearly three days and it's finally gone, but only because I drank a cup of hot tea and the caffeine helped my headache. So now I'm all hyped up on caffeine and writing a completely rambling post that shows how distracted I can get when I just need to go to bed.
Hopefully, when this posts at 7am CST, I will be sound asleep finally and when I do wake up, I will be ready for a wonderful Monday. Summer Mondays are always wonderful because I don't have to go to work.
The road may be straight and narrow....but....get off the main traveled pathway and take the side paths in life...You will have a much more enjoyable journey! Just like Robert Frost, 'two roads diverged and I took the less traveled one and that made all the difference in my life..."
ReplyDeleteDistractions are great and serve a purpose to broaden the fun in life...
Distractions are wonderful. It's usually the things that distract or interrupt the mundane routines of our everyday lives that keep life exciting, interesting and fun. I look forward to when my friends distract or interrupt my day. I have one great friend in particular, who makes my day when he texts me and can change my mood instantly with his distractions.
ReplyDeleteI am with Ethan on this one. Sometimes, of course, distractions are just that -- distractions. But sometimes I think distractions are the soft voices of an Inner Wisdom tapping at my consciousness. I may want to swat it away like a mosquito, when it is in fact a divine whisper calling me out of the cave ...
ReplyDeleteAfter reading today's post my only thought is, please remember the next time you get one of your horrible headaches that a hot cup of tea helped you on this occasion. :)
ReplyDeleteDistractions can be a good thing. Glad to hear that your headache was going away and I hope you were able to rest. And while sleeping maybe having some distractingly fun dreams! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat was that you said? Sorry, I got distrac - oh look, something shiny!
ReplyDeletePeace <3
