Change of Venue

In the moments after a disaster, I was recently advised to 1) not make any major decisions, 2) stay hydrated, eat even if you don’t feel like it, and 3) go to a hotel and stay there for four days. #3 was not obvious- the patterns of your life are disrupted, something is missing or wrong with every little thing, so (at least in the short term) gtfo and get away from all of those disruptions and weird ghost memories. Go somewhere with air conditioning and eat ice cream and watch 30 Rock. Four days worked for some other folks and for me, your mileage may vary.
