The Workin' Man

I went back to work today and after the mess of a vacation that was last week it was refreshing to back to work. The structure and routine of the daily grind was actually a nice change from the unknowing state that I habituated within last week. This new but familiar way of being definitely was more relaxing, as weird as it sounds. I guess I knew what Inwas going to get and I got it. There is some comfort in knowing what the outcome is going to be. Even though variety is the spice of life, too much unknown can bring uncertainty which leads to anxiety, fret, and worry. Those are paths to the dark side, but like a scenic route to the dark side. Probably makes a stop in  paranoia and psychosis along the way before arriving at fear and anger, the true paths to the dark side. If you haven't seen Star Wars then shame on you and you better work to watch it. It's a major underlying theme in all modern society and all that. There are books on it probably, and I don't just mean fan fiction.

Anyways, the moral of the story is that it was good to get back after it. I think an element of control that accompanies being back I the saddle might have brought me some solace as well. Last week I knew what was going on but when you try to severe that connection to the world you work in. You feel much less plugged in and probably on the outside looking in. That too can lead to the dark side in a roundabout fashion. So many routes to the dark side, way more tha I ever fathomed. Well this has taken a turn, speaking of turns, so I will truncate it here and go back to my Game of Thrones novel. Have a splendid night and tomorrow.
