Lydy's Anarchist Revival Meeting

I am deeply charmed by the idea of putting "worry" on my to do list. At one point, I had a little set of "worry people". You were supposed to take each little doll (they were about an inch long, just thread wrapped around wire, I think), assign it a worry, put the person in the bag, and then go to sleep. While you were asleep, the worry people were supposed to do your worrying for you. I thought they were cute, and was glad to have them, but could never make them work as advertised. I worried that they wouldn't worry properly. I really felt that I needed to give that personal touch to the worry, and that delegating it was unsatisfactory.
