I'm addicted to... - [Found Poetry]
Today's Poem
pleasant vices
Electro-magnetic golf
Centrifugal Bumble-puppy
value dwells not in particular will
it would upset the whole social order if men started doing things on their own.
Self-indulgence up to the very limits imposed by hygiene and economics.
You can't have a lasting civilization without plenty of pleasant vices.

Process and Some Thoughts
I could have turned to most any page in Brave New World and found information on addiction. I got lucky with the first page I turned to in that it had some great content and, I got to include the phrase Centrifugal Bumble-puppy. Huxley's imagination was an interesting place. I wonder what the rules are for that game?
Saturday and Sunday are days of rest. Chats with family and friends, lazing around, cooking, cleaning, doing a few projects around the house - it makes it easy to fill a day.
I'm bizarrely excited that I've added six penguin faced wool dryer balls to my help the planet arsenal of products. These little guys are so cute! I included the link to them on Amazon if you want to pick up a set. I added a little bit of citrus essential oil to them and I'm in absolute love.
There might have been two additional AeroGardens that also made their way into the house today - speaking of things I'm growing addicted to. I'll add photos once they are set up and I've finalized a planting plan.
What's keeping you sane right now?
