Daydreamin'

     My mind often wanders beyond the here-and-now.  I'm probably one of the worst people about daydreaming.  It sometimes makes it hard to concentrate on what people are saying.  Oftentimes, I have to have them repeat what they're saying because I keep zoning out.  Most of the times my daydreams are hopeful glimpses into the future, like getting a promotion or a new job or getting an A on a test, yadda yadda yadda.  Sometimes, however, my daydreams wander off into the darkness of what-can-go-wrong.  What would happen if I did this, altered that, changed when, transformed where, and figured out how?  These are thoughts that I am blessed/cursed with.
     The fantasies can last a few seconds, or even about 20 minutes.  It just depends on what I'm supposed to be doing.  They're pretty much just an escape; a way for me to live my dreams/face my fears while I'm stuck in my College Algebra class.

  1. I gave your fish a little snack...they are a fun diversion, just like daydreams...I, too, find myself pondering the negative "what ifs." Also the "why did Is..." But mostly I daydream about the farm and farmhouse I want to build someday...and all the little animals that will live there with me. :)

  2. I hate College Algebra and I also daydream in there. It's a great hour and a half to ponder about life. :)
