pondhopIt's rarely a good sign when I'm quoting Wordsworth, since I do not care for him or his verse, and that's all I'm going to say here about world affairs.
I am exasperated about many things and at many individuals, including myself. Among other things, I had managed to coax a rose seed into sprouting after stratifying it from November through January -- but then forgotten to water it for a week or two, what with deadlines and drama occupying too much of my brain. It's a tiny failure amid the many things I succeeded in pushing across finish lines this month, but dammit.
On an upside, there's a new late bloom on one of the Christmas cacti, and some shoots are peeking out of the indoor daffodil bulbs. I danced for 3.5 hours yesterday and 2.5 today, the latter at a Zumbathon that raised $600+ for a Puerto Rican family. I'd planned on going to classes in the morning as well, but the need both for extra sleep and extra hours at the office prevailed.
I am wearing slippers and pajama bottoms with sheep motifs, and this popped up on my Duolingo screen not too long ago:
It's not always bad to feel seen.. ;)
