I need a sabbath

My brain aches. My body cringes. My soul cries out...

I feel like I have been on for days. I feel behind... disconnected...

The clutter on my desk frustrates me. My inbox irritates me. The stack of bills looms ever present.

My wife misses me. My calendar calls me. The clock fails to yield...

The bed waits for me. My throat hurts. My commitment is stressed...

My heart beats. My mind reels. My cat sleeps peacefully...

My wife needs a husband. My unborn child needs a father. And I... I need to remember that.

Where am I going? Better yet, where am i being taken? Will I be wise enough to know when I'm there?


That's all for now. Welcome to my thought stream. I'm overwhelmed. Good night.


Please, call your Senators.

I awoke this morning and I felt a little better. I planned a dinner with my wife. I shaved. I cleaned out my inbox. It has been a good morning.
