Sunny Day Ramble
Hi everyone! I'm back, on National Earth Wind & Fire Day! It's a sunny day and the sky is blue with some wispy clouds. Today is a slower day, so I thought I'd pop in with some updates about the last couple of weeks! 10 days ago (on 9/11, actually) my car broke down while I was driving to a music therapy client. A shiny black sportscar was revving its engine behind me, driving faster than I was. So, I sped up, unable to merge over because of a humble red sedan in the lane next to me. My old car didn't like that, and out the back, erupted thick plumes of white smoke which then soured to brown. My check engine light started blinking too. I have always been calm in tough situations like this... I think having a somewhat heightened level of anxiety all the time primes my brain to expect a crisis and handle it with grace. I actually enjoy the adrenaline rush of crisis moments like this, where the anxiety is actually helpful and doing its job, but I prefer to be the helpe...
