Indulge in Book Two

I had a couple of glasses of wine when I was barbecuing the chicken breasts. And then a couple more afterwards. I almost never have more than two drinks anymore. But sometimes I let myself overindulge.

The missus went back into her pottery studio so I went to my office nook and I watched a couple old episodes of Bob’s Utopia. Fun times. Recent, yet half a world away. Having a Youtube channel is really a gift you give yourself. I get to relive my life in vivid detail. What could be better than that? The city scenery, the musical montage, me walking and talking. It is really a self-indulgent act, but why not?

I suppose any and all hobbies are acts of self indulgence. They are something we do for ourselves. There is little monetary value but when there is some, the pittance becomes a treasure-trove. The missus, who makes a six figure salary sold about $300 in pottery at the spring sale. How happy is she? I make about $100/month with my Youtube channel. I’m even happier. What I’m saying is if I was a fisherman, if my hobby was fishing, a fish that I catch on my own, gut, clean and fry up will taste so much better than any ever bought at a store.
