Jack of Harts

I’ve been living on autopilot for the last year or so, just going from one task to the next and doing most of it on autopilot. The good thing about having OCD is that my systems have organizational systems to keep them in line, so I can mostly operate by just following previous examples and keep on going on. My higher mind has not needed to be involved a lot, which considering how many times I’ve come home and just sat down in a chair and gone to sleep is a good thing. The suboptimal thing about living on autopilot is that new situations can slip by without a notice. Something like this happened recently, and the “bad idea fairy” did not bonk me upside the head to warn me because I wasn’t thinking. It was both serious and not serious. Nothing truly bad happened, but if I spent time with less honorable people it could have. And it would have been someone else who got hurt. Thank God I surround myself with good people. This last few months would have been so different otherwise.
