To start 2018, I've made a resolution of maximizing my own happiness.

 It's been a long time since I've written here. Apologies to anyone (if you're still around) who enjoys reading these posts. It's not a matter of not having much to say, rather than just being distracted by other things. 

I've been in a constant state of agitation lately. If I had to describe it, I would say its a state of constant pressing thoughts. To use a  'pedia article I read some time ago, my brain is constantly make using of its executive functions. Between my job, finding a home, following the market, and other responsibilities, I've been set into this mode where I'm constantly taking in new information and making decisions on what I should do about them. I'm sure all of this is taking some toll on me.
