The Problem With Fun

The problem with having fun is that moment you become conscious you're having some, your focus shifts, the situation has changed and the delight you initially experienced threatens to slip away. So you work hard at forgetting you noticed you were having fun, and soon all that's left is the realization that you still haven't done the dishes.

And this is just one more reason why it would be good to be a sea otter. All play and/or pro-creative activity, delicious mussel snacks, single point of focus... and no dishes.
