everything now-ness

something about sundays always makes me feel so much more reflective and write-y than usual.  i spent an hour in my office not working, but watching brotherhood 2.0 videos which are pretty great. and one of the video themes was “things i’ll miss about new york” and was made by one of the brothers on the occassion of his leaving my city. one of the things on his list was the “everything now-ness” of new york.  i realized that is one thing i always miss when i leave the city. its very addicting to be able to get everything in the world as soon as you decide you want it. its turned an already-impatient-me into some hyper-impatient-me who thinks that the water from the sink flows too slowly and that it should take less than 5 seconds to fill up a cup of water.
