I talk about my afternoon at Irishfest the day before and how I chose to leave after listening to 3 bands, because my ears were overstimulated and tired from all the auditory input.  I think listening to live music requires stamina and I never knew that before.  The pandemic has made us all out of practice with festivals, crowds, and music, so I had to leave to get quiet again.

I also talk about how tired I am when I get home from work and how I want to escape from reality once I get home instead of doing anything constructive.  This behavior makes me sad and anxious.  I'm not sure how to feel differently.
