“Tired of staring at the ceiling?”

Not really.  I never tire of staring at the ceiling.

“What goes through your mind while you are staring?”

How I should be staring at the ceiling.

“Your blogs used to be daily, and now they are sporadic.”

True.  I never know when the ceiling will remind me of the emotional pain of not seeing my kids because of petty access games.  I never know when the ceiling will remind me how much I needed someone to listen to me, and no one cared.  “Gosh, Gary, I don’t feel like listening to this right now.”  

“Are you trying to play a victim?”

Yes.

“You’re not convincing.”

Okay, I’ll stop.
