I spoke too quickly about things easing up at school, unfortunately. It might just be one of those semesters. So let's talk about other things and focus on the positive

*Yeah* for clementines: in addition to their sweet taste they are so much easier to peel than oranges ;-)
And I am with you on apprecating the silence as well; when I was young I had the radio playing so much, now I rarely switch it on - mostly in the car or when I want to listen to the news... Which means I am totally out of knowing what is going on in the field of pop-music :-); sometimes A. mentions some new singer and can't believe I have never heard of him/her, very rarely she feels the need to use her music-provider on her I-phone to have me listen to a song then :-).
I like clementines better, too. They're easy to peel, just the right amount of fruit, and I do think they're sweeter.
I used to be all about silence. I reveled in it. It relaxed me. Now, with the ringing in my ears, I rarely get to experience it, but I still think it's something special and hard to come by nowadays, even if you don't carry constant sound around in your ears. There's a different quality about being home by yourself when you're used to having some else there alot, too. It can get lonely, but it's also rather freeing. I hope you enjoy your time with yourself! :D
Actual, substantial mail in the mailbox is such a wonderful thing!
Clementines are amazing; I also prefer them to regular oranges.
There is very little silence to be had with a 13 month old underfoot, but I know the silence you're talking bout and revel in it on the rare occasions it appears!
Have you ever had a Minneola tangelo? They're yummy! I also like Temple oranges - available for only a short time - for juice. They are a bitch to peel for eating, but just amazing for juice.
I almost never have music on, but as I'm on the computer a lot, it's never silent. That and the ringing in my ears. But I do like the quiet, and being able to hear the natural sounds, especially when I'm outside.
