My Office

I have an office. It has large windows on the north side – really large windows. I work on a plateau surrounded by beautiful mountains. From my office on the plateau looking north out the large windows, I can see the beautiful mountains very well. Trying to work in an office with really large windows on a plateau surrounded by beautiful mountains is like holding a deep breath while watching a movie or TV show attempting to be the character that holds his/her breath to swim under water for long periods of time…it’s hard. No matter how much one practices or how well one anticipates the exact point in a scene where the character holds his/her breath, it’s impossible to “swim” under water as long as people in the movies. That doesn’t stop me from trying, though. Sometimes during a movie I’ll hold my breath to the point that my body starts to quiver and threatens to pee the pants if I don’t stop the ridiculous stunt. I can last about 8.6 seconds past this threat before my body takes the situation by force. Don’t ask how I figured that one out. While you’re testing your own breath-holding skills, I’ll get back to work in my office with really large windows on a plateau surrounded by beautiful mountains.
