So Im at the pool just now, trying to get some much needed vitamin D and see if I could achieve a brief meditative state... get me out of my head. Just as I notice I havent had a thought in at least 5 minutes, I notice the woman with the raft and the cooler on wheels, setting up camp, one chair over, at the otherwise unattended pool. After making a cumbersome event of inflating the raft, she decides to work a rolling sweat to the sound of country music, whining from her iPhone. 3 amazingly contentless tunes later, Im in a dark country bar watching her ride the mechanical bull. And Im squirming... I politely ask her if she by chance has any earbuds.. to which she replies, no. I dont. Sorry, she continued, this is my only day to relax and this is how I do it. .. I dont even own earbuds. I totally understand, I told her, I, myself am trying to meditate. I own some i might let you borrow if you couldnt get some of your own at your nearest convenient store for under $5. None of this effectively changing anything except the speed and tempo of her tapping toe. I thought of arguing that I was there first but decided to do what a mature, civil person would do to handle a self-involved person behaving badly. I played her a little tune... always inspired. Checkmate.
