Scribbler's Hump Day CI 7:44 a.m.
Thanks for the starter, lennon. I have been struggling with distractions, mostly in the form of online political discussions. There's something compelling about getting involved in these for me. However, participating in them is not advancing my primary concerns. I'm not doing terribly bad, but I'd like to do better and I'll try to today...
