Sometimes you’re a victim of ennui.

You’ve read all about this and all about that. You’ve enjoyed the ravings of various radio madmen. You’re debating with yourself the merits of hating Islamic jihadists. You’ve watched one too many crime procedurals on television starring men with carrot red hair that so cleverly out the criminal. Luckily there is some eye candy designed to satisfy the male gaze. You wonder whatever happened to the acoustic mirror, Lacanian analysis, Derrida’s essay that worked as a forward to a book on the Wolf Man, why Wittgenstein was so eager to fight for the Austrians. You notice how the rain has ruined your neglected patio furniture. You wonder why you have a patio.
