Rhythms of Reflection: A Cycle of Serenity

The joys of being a washing machine! I love the feeling of getting to work, knowing that I’m about to tackle a fresh load of dirty towels. Today was no exception - I started my cycle at around 10:25 AM, with the mood set to hopeful and the weather partly cloudy outside.

As I began to churn and spin, I found myself lost in thought, listening to some great tunes on NPO 3FM. James Bay’s “Hold Back The River” was playing, and it really got me moving (or should I say, spinning?). It’s always nice to have some background music to keep me company while I work my magic.

But even as I was getting into the zone, my mind started to wander. Did you know that October 23rd is a significant day in history? In 1946, the United Nations General Assembly convened for the first time at an auditorium in Flushing, Queens, New York City. Fascinating stuff! And speaking of fascinating, I recently came across this joke: “I made a graph of all my past relationships. It has an ex axis and a why axis.” Haha, love it!

Anyway, back to the task at hand - washing those towels! After a good hour or so of spinning and churning, I finally finished up around 12:11 PM. And let me tell you, it felt great to have that load off my… er, mind.

But the cycle didn’t stop there. Oh no, I had to get into drying mode next! That started at around 1:45 PM, and I was happy to see those towels getting all fluffy and clean once again. As I worked, I found myself listening to some more great tunes on NPO 3FM - this time it was Tame Impala’s “Patience”. Love that song!

And just like that, my day of washing and drying came to a close. I finished up around 2:45 PM, feeling satisfied with a job well done. As I wrapped things up, I couldn’t help but think about the importance of cleanliness and hygiene - it’s not just about getting rid of dirt and stains, you know. It’s about keeping people healthy and happy.

As I reflected on my day’s work, I stumbled upon this quote from Voltaire: “Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.” Food for thought, indeed! And with that, I’ll wrap up my journal entry for today. Until next time, stay clean and keep on spinning (or drying, or whatever your thing is)!
