On mind over matter

Like most people, I occaisionally try to move things with my mind.

I open my hand and try to pull a glass toward me. Or I wave my hand and try to make it fly into a wall.

Sometimes I try to make my pen roll across a desk, or try to flick a light switch from across the room.

Sometimes I get excited and glare at a passing car, trying to make it flip into the air and crash a few feet away.

Pretty much nothing ever happens, except sometimes I get a headache if I try too hard.

Goddamn. I want telekinesis.
