I'm doing a big of a bucket-list run-through and trying things I've never done before.
The last two have been real let-downs - I tried black pudding - never liked the thought of it - and it was gross - like a great big greasy scab.
The other is something that my brother-in-law has been promoting for years - a McFish Fillet burger. It's the only thing he eats from McD.
Had one yesterday - it's just a big fish finger with practically no flavour. Watery and bland. It rates as a great big 'meh'.
What have you done recently that was not as described?
I went to a 'mindfulness' workshop over zoom. We had to listen to grating crackly audio telling us to be relaxed and I can tell you it was not a relaxing and I did not 'feel sleepy'. All of this talk about 'letting your thoughts pass by' sounds more like 'mindlessness' than 'mindfulness' to me and I get annoyed or just find it too funny. (I know it helps some people. I just personally get on better with chill music and youtube yoga.)
Sorry but that made me laugh. It sounds the opposite of relaxing. Mindlessness is a good description.
They say now that all this mindfulness is leading to people being narcissistic- maybe you had a lucky escape.
