Just one thing!

[randomling]

Hello, Awesomeers!

I have a challenge for you. In fact, I think I'm going to make this a daily challenge. Participate as often or as infrequently as you feel like, and over time we'll see if this should happen daily/weekly/whatever interval works.

The challenge:

Comment with Just One Thing that you've accomplished in the past twenty-four hours. It doesn't have to be a hard thing, or even a thing you think is particularly awesome. Just a thing that you did.

Extra credit: find someone in the comments and give them props for what they achieved!

This can be really anything. (Some days the most impressive thing I accomplish is "got out of bed at some point".) Nothing is too small, too strange, or too cryptic - "did that thing I was dreading" is fine if you don't feel like sharing the details.

If you'd rather not do this publicly, anon comments are screened for your private-commenting pleasure.

Have at it!

What's road hypnosis? I think I was too afraid I'd miss my turn. Or get run over. I was doing 75 mph in a 65 zone and kept getting passed by people who had to be doing 85 at least.

Road hypnosis is when you start to...kind of fall asleep, but just generally slowly stop thinking, the longer you drive. The sight of the road just going on and on and on is just...well, hypnotizing. It can put you in a trance, where you're likely to get hit.

I've never understood it, either, because highway driving scares me. Especially with all those big trucks and the variable speed limits.

Ugh. Yes. Glad that did not happen.

This actually happens to me a lot, especially on long drives that I've done often. When we were moving from Northern VA to VA Beach, I did that 3 hour drive so many times, the last time I had to stop every 40 minutes or so because my brain kept trying to shut down.
