Turn It Off and Breathe

I did not watch the super bowl, the bowl halftime show, or the pres remarks tonight; from the looks of FB and Twitter feeds, I think I am going to sleep better than a whole bunch of folks tonight. Take a chill, people; its just drama on TV precisely & deliberately created to push your buttons and cause you to want to make remarks to your friends of differing viewpoints which you will (hopefully) regret tomorrow. Turn it all off. All of it. Read a book. Take up piano or try knitting. There is nothing you can do about any of it until you step into a voting booth for the primaries. Meanwhile weeks of stewing boost your blood pressure and hasten your heart attack.
