work

i’m nervous, of course, because i’ve actually never worked in a library, but hopefully the classes i’ve taken have prepared me enough…
and i’m nervous to have to dress up, or at...

Wild Geese by Mary Oliver
You do not have to be good. You do not have to walk on your knees for a hundred miles through the desert, repenting. You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves. Tell me about despair, yours, and I will tell you mine. Meanwhile the world goes on. Meanwhile the sun and the clear pebbles of the rain are moving across the landscapes, over the prairies and the deep...

day 4
i had planned on heading to versailles today, so i set my alarm for 8:30, so i could get an early start. it’s basically an all day event. anyway, i woke up then and it was still dark out (which is super weird), and i was so tired, so i slept, again until about 12:30. maybe i just need to force myself out of bed.
i felt kind of weird when i got up, a bit of a sore throat (which i still have,...

day 3
well, i had trouble sleeping again last night. i was awake from 2-4, and when my alarm went off at 8:30, i was not ready to get up. i reset it for 10, but was still exhausted when the alarm went off. so i just let myself sleep until 12:30, and forced myself to get up, because i swear i could have slept all day. i guess my body is still getting used to the time change. it’s quite...

day 2
well, i figured today would be a fairly lazy day after my ordeals yesterday, and it was.
i went to bed at about 10pm last night, hoping to get used to the time change, but i woke up at 4am wide awake. i was able to fall back asleep around 6, and then woke up at 12:30! i didnt intend to sleep that long, but i guess i needed it, after not sleeping for over 24 hours.
i got ready, ate some more...
