Weren't my feet doing anything; 'twas a mind find inspired by fevered hand vacuuming ahead of company coming for dinner. Took a break, plopped down in rocker, dustbuster in hand, camera 'round my neck, my wife right handy to take a picture and "snap".

I get this way once a year or so. Wired. Meds maybe? Multiple coffee breaks a day. Don't know. My wife tolerates, calls me on overstepping boundaries. Sooner or later I'll wind down.
