futile

i wake up. and all is silent. so i sit down and play the piano. working it out with beethoven. i have all of the first movement of für elise memorized, so i play it repetitiously, instead of taking the challenge of learning the rest of the piece. sometimes i get so frustrated. and i wander around my living room. and there's nothing to do with myself. so i play the piano. over and over. e, e flat, e, e flat, e, b, d, c, a. and then the rest. and then again. and again. until my fingers get tired.

but i still don't feel any better. so i start in on moonlight sonata, but the triplets frustrate me, so i give up and start playing für elise again. and then i'm angry. so i take a shower.

and i wish i'd just stayed in bed.
