Okay I Am Sat In A Chair

I received a text today from my younger daughter which reads ‘Okay I am sat in a chair’. For some reason I keep turning this phrase around in my head as if it has some kind of deep and profound meaning which I cannot quite grasp. It doesn’t of course, it was simply a reply to a text I sent telling her that we would meet her in the cafe in the IKEA store in Southampton (she was already in the store and we were putting some purchases in the boot of the car). But it is going around and around my brain and I can feel myself peering into the cracks between the words trying to draw out the hidden meaning that my intuition tells me is there if I only look hard enough. Perhaps it needs some punctuation. A comma after ‘Okay’ obviously does the trick but it could be a little bit Yoda like if there was a comma after the word ‘am’ to split it into two phrases – ‘okay I am’, ‘sat in a chair’ – but not quite. Now I come to think about it, I think it is this Yoda-like quality of the first three words that is making me ponder the whole phrase, and realizing that might just give me a means to escape the mental torture that I am putting myself through thinking about it so much. I should try to move on. In fact, I should not TRY to move on, I should just move on. After all, as Yoda himself once said ‘Do, or do not. There is no try.’
