Satisfying

Don't you just love YouTube?  With a dearth of actual work to do, I've been spending a lot of hours going down various rabbit holes on YouTube when I should be working.  My most recent addiction - and my recommendation that you check it out, even if it sounds totally bizarre - is to watch videos of rugs being cleaned.  It is oddly compelling and satisfying to see a really dirty rug slowly revealing some beautiful colors as it gets cleaned.  Perhaps it is also an ASMR thing - on some of the videos, they certainly crank up the cleaning sounds and include a load of slow motion and close-up shots.  It's a bit like food porn - but with dirt and rugs.  It somehow works anyway.  At least it does for the next few days, until I move onto something else!
