May 5: Monday
May. 5th, 2025 11:26 pmYet again it’s the evening (night) and I’m dithering over what to write about, thus keeping myself up even later than I would otherwise be. Ah well. I had a weird amount of restless energy today, accomplished a few things that were not hard or time-consuming but I’d been putting them off, and also interviewed another 2 students for our summer position. I sort of wish we could have offered hours to all of them; I liked them all a lot. What an embarrassment of wishes.
I also gave the little speech about what the job actually does and was complimented on it, which was nice, because usually when I speak at length I enter this fugue state and who knows what I was even saying during it.
The rain let up so I could go grocery shopping and I did so without too much stress or mental foot dragging. So at least there is that. It’s been hanging over me for a while. Getting that done was my excuse to do nothing else of worth the rest of the evening. So there’s a lot of apartment cleaning that needs to be done but… later. Lol.
I’ve been having some creative thoughts but still in vague, amorphous forms. Mostly just excitement for certain projects and also the sense that it’s been too long since I had a long writing session and I’d like to do that again.
But also later. Lol.
