Wildlife Sighting
This morning I got to meet a banded wood snail [cepaea nemoralis] in my "garden". It was poking around precariously close to my striped roma tomato seedlings. It was shy and didn't want to slide around on my hand, so I was kinda sad. But I got to see it moving after I set it down, and couldn't resist gently poking it. I really like the shell - I'd ( Read more... ) -

Got into a minor car accident last night on my way into work.
Some 16-year-old girl merged directly into my lane, clipping the back-end of my passenger side.

I wish I could stop thinking about what happened... -
"Memory itself is an internal rumour."
Yesterday, I fell asleep on my stomach, trying to meditate on the earth. I remembering dozing/redirecting my thoughts at least three times before falling into a deep sleep. I didn't pay attention to the time, but I believe that I slept for a few hours before I was startled awake [I think it was triggered by Derek rolling over or touching me]. I ( Read more... )
