Like an overloaded hard drive, spinning in an infinite loop, a day feels like a week- long exhaustion. Mundane situations expend nervous energy in the confines of my mind. High density multiplies the intensity. Inverse proportions of energy are expended on the trivial. Narrowing walls and halls of thought. Out of control, over alert or necessary precautions? Conformity, complacency, carelessness, or rational balance of risks?
