Needs Work

The article (http://melancholia.typepad.com/melancholia/2009/07/do-easy.html) describes a good approach to mindful action, so I spend most of the night trying to pick things up slowly, deliberately. I carefully observe where things go and try not to let go of them before they're done moving.

So when I pour the remains of one bottle of wine into the new one (same wine, same vintner, what am I, a barbarian?) I look forward to exercising my newfound skill.

Which is of course the precise moment my hand twitches, causing me to dump red wine all over the table, as if I'd deliberately splashed it, in some fit of inebriated joy.
