Loitering Glossary/Loitering in Theory

Take a step forward if...
	... you have crossed a task of your to do list
	... you know what you'll have for dinner tonight
	... you have send a message to your mother
	... you have exercised recently
	... you have made plans with a friend for this weekend
	... you have completed your vocab exercises for the day
	... you have prepared for class tomorrow
	... you have folded your laundry
	... you have send a postcard to your mother, you ungrateful pig
	... you have made plans with a friend for this weekend
	... you have reconsidered if you shouldn't be looking for work 
	... you have still not crossed anything of your todo list, have you?
	... you just can't send that message, can you? Such a disappointment
	... you are stuck and will never get anywhere like this
	... you know this
	... you let it happen every day. Why?

Theoretical loitering is not bound to a physical location. One might loiter in theory in a cozy chair, on the train, when waiting to fall asleep, while walking. If one is daring, one might even practise loitering in theory while loitering in physical space.

Just like one might wander an urban landscape, one might wander their mind. This can be pleasant, extremely pleasant. A book might take you by the hand. Music might help you navigate it in new ways. It can be a most intimate moment with yourself.

My mind doesn't like me loafing around. There's a patrol keeping close watch. No nonsense, explain yourself. Don't you have anything better to do? Just do it, then!

Loitering in theory is non-trivial. Often, the interests of the facilitator of a space are at conflict with the loiterer in that space. A theoretical loiterer bears responsibility both for mindless wandering, as well as safeguarding their mind.

For me, the ability to enjoy a stroll though my thoughts is the best indicator for how well I'm doing with respects to stress levels, anxiety and mental health over all.
