Can’t Stop Listening

So I’m a recent Hitchens convert. My YouTube feed popped up with his Dinesh debates and I was hooked. I’ve been trying to identify his charisma, what makes him so magnetic. Reminds of Dudley Moore in Arthur a bit with all these drinking stories.

Distractions to function?

Anyone else feel a constant need to wear an earbud with something playing low in the background just to maintain and function through the day? Over the past few years I’ve grown so attached/addicted to this habit. Whether it’s a book, YouTube videos about physics, or a show some noise has to be there or I start getting really uncomfortable. I meditate daily, exercise daily, meds, therapy, etc. With a small house and three kids under 10 I often feel confined, and this habit lets me have a connection to something separate. Fuck this sounds so bad as I’m writing it, but I know it’s not a good thing for my family. I hate living in this brain even on the best days.
