Today was one of those days with a vast expanse of varied emotions and feelings. I went to bed furious at Tommy last night for what I consider his complete lack of consideration. Why? Because he paired my Bose to his iPhone against my wishes and direction. IS that a such a big deal? Well, yeah, it is, to me, that my wishes are not honored and that the introduction of a new paired device will likely cause me problems the next time I want to use them for the TV, or my phone, which is why I keep them isolated. But he didn't give a shit and I wanted to deck him. The rudeness is more offensive than the act. So I was pissed when I went to bed, spent the night ruminating on what was or was not a reasonable expectation, or reaction, or follow up. I walked the dog w/Jen and didn't discuss it, as she was quiet about it in the moment and I have decided that I don't want to overtalk this stuff, it's getting old. As is writing about it. I left it alone for the day, I know he knows it was an overstep, and like other things, anticipate he'll 'get it' in time and retrospect. Work was good, really good. I jumped on the idea of sending each of my team an Audible book which was well received. I updated my subscription heading into 2021 and anticipate doing it elsewhere, too. I'm pretty disappointed with my recent week's health endeavors. Although I don't regret returning the Halo I have lost my focus on meditation, walking, and weight reduction. I'll be walking with Lauren tomorrow and returning to the focus tomorrow as well. We watched "How Can You Mend A Broken Heart" tonight and it was really good, and showed the impact of a cultural backlash against a music genre on the lives of a family of brothers who'd weathered multiple transitions in their careers, including that one. It's a very 'human' story and dramatic to see how it played out throughout their lives. I also watched a few clips of some writiers that I found inspirational including a Charile Kaufman clip.
