Minimalist poet, minimalist lifestyle

I got in from the shops this morning and a sense of being totally overwhelmed just washed over me as I entered the house. I just couldn't decide what to do first; take off my coat or shoes, unpack my shopping, go the toilet, switch on the heating, check the phone for any messages or just sit down and turn on the TV.

This affliction doesn't happen very often, but when it does it can be quite debilitating for a few minutes. I don't know what the medical term for this situation is; it usually happens in the supermarket with the large selection of products, or when I'm just walking around town and don't know which shops I need to visit.

Basically, I can't cope with choice, it all gets too much for me sometimes.

I was listening to a live radio programme online yesterday when I lost the feed, not an unusual occurence - however, the last two words that I heard were 'shut down'. Of course, coincidences do regularly happen without anything suspicious, conspiratorial or even paranormal being involved...for example, the many coincidences between the Kennedy and Lincoln assassinations are amazing...yet genuine.
