Friday Five
Apr. 13th, 2018 09:36 pmI am in what those around me say is a predictable post-submission slump. I. It's like I'm in anxiety withdrawal. Unless I have, like, a class RIGHT TODAY, it's very hard to convince my brain we should be awake and doing things. (Exception seems to be talking in ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
radiantfracture's journal about Gawain of an evening: but, despite the citations, that qualitatively FEELS like a fan conversation, Gawain always does to me.)
Anyway I want to sleep all the time. It's like I'm sick, except I'm not. I'm physically stiff and sore, but not ill.
As distraction: Friday Five
1) Has the weather where you are finally started acting like spring is here? Yes! I got back from chicago and spring had happened! This week's temperatures were a bit variable, but definitely spring.
2) Do you have any special spring activities or outings planned? Uh... no. I kind of want to replant my balcony garden, but is there a point when I've only got three months left in the flat?
3) Have you started wearing different clothing appropriate to spring? Not really, but I CAN wear fewer layers, and that was useful on Monday when I realised I had not done laundry for three weeks and my chicago bag didn't contain clean work-appropriate clothes.
4) What signs of spring are manifesting around you? Well, it's warmer. There are flowers in the lawns in the parks. Sunset is notably later (that's really daylight savings at work, but it FEELS like spring).
5) Are there special foods you enjoy preparing and/or eating in the spring? Not as a ritualistic thing, but I did buy asparagus once before easter and will probably do so again soon. And I'm looking forward to my first ice cream of the season: probably this weekend, while doing laundry.
(site notemonksandbones i haven't replied to your last comments, which, hah. i laughted a cynical laugh. Am not annoyed with you or anything. Limited emotion brain resources.)
