It sounds like such exciting words- cold snap!- but really it’s just a miserable thing. At least for me. I have a lot of trouble keeping cheery in this kind of weather, with the days being so short and all. But they are saying that it’s going to end soon, maybe even tomorrow.
So I just realized I’m going about making my terrarium in a very backwards way. Of course, all I really care about are the moss and the decorations and figured I’d snitch some rocks from my neighbors garden, but I’m way to grouchy to do that right now. But my moss came in the mail and needed somewhere to live so it’s in the tank with a bunch of soil, but I know soon I will have to put in rocks for drainage and some activated charcoal for lord knows what. I guess I’ll just see if my moss lasts over the next few days. If it dies, I guess I could just make a dead terrarium and find some kind of material that looks like moss and then just have dry soil. Hmm, hmm. We’ll see!
So I went to my friend Jocelyn’s birthday party the other night and felt compelled to make an effort with my clothes (which I’ve NOT been feeling this week). So here I am…
I was actually pretty pleased. And the best part was that two little girls in the bathroom told me they liked my shoes. Now that’s a compliment!
Well, classes start tonight and I’m appalled that I’m going to be expected to be reading hundreds of pages a week again. Oh well!
Hope everyone has a good rest of their Tuesday.



i like your shoes too, but i like your pocket watch even more. didn’t you dress up as a watch salesman for career day as a kid? am i making that up? you know, when i was kid i wanted to be a firefighter- to think we would have been friends even at such a tender age.
