Indeed Things Have Changed

Living my new normal, watching TV by sitting close, able to see just enough that I can follow along, everything is in black and white, fast forwarding through a commercial via TiVo, and there it is:

A commercial for a website I used to check every single day for job opportunities and that I have not even thought about in three years. I don’t see most colors, but blue is one I can sort of see and the Indeed logo screamed out at me against the black and white broadcast. An unexpected reminder of what once was. A reminder of my old life and career and all that that involved, the travel and the money and the personal fulfillment. A sucker punch to the gut. 
Who knew watching TV could be a full contact sport?
