your brain has too much to do in it, and all that you can do is to sit still and wait for time to "go by" so that what is going to happen, happens. You have to fill the "downtime" with time doing nothing so something will happen when the time comes. oh my.

I don't know how old you are, but 'way back in the dark ages before video games, there was something called a pinball machine. It had a ball that bounced back and forth on things and you maneuvered that ball with two flapper like things. A lot of people would also try to move the ball around by jiggling the machine. If they jiggled too much the machine said "Tilt" and the game was over. When my brain gets overloaded, I go "tilt".

Not that old, Kindof old. They were not "dark ages" but neon-lite ages, pinball halls and all. I, myself dont go "tilt" anymore. Information doesnt overload me since..... Pinball machines have a steel hoop inside them with a V-shaped rod hanging in the center that when shaken to had the rod hits the side and the machine goes "tilt". It is a grounding thing.The tilt I mean.
