Runaway Engine

I had observed to someone recently that my brain feels like a runaway engine, going faster and faster, and that even an attempt to turn off the ignition doesn’t stop it. As I mentioned in my “Marker in the Ground” article, insomnia has taken over my life because I cannot get my thoughts to turn off. However, I didn’t realize how intense the situation has become until I posted the man-made religions article. That article is the 43^rd article for this year. In all of 2016 I only wrote 43 articles!

That made me wonder how many articles I’d written in the first two months in past years.

	January	February	Total
2011	1	1	2
2012	5	2	7
2013	8	0	8
2014	1	5	6
2015	21	9	30
2016	4	6	10
2017	15	28	43

No real point here. I’m just surprised with my verbosity. I’ve heard of the “quiet before the storm,” maybe this is just the opposite, the storm before the quiet.
