Life in late capitalism can be vexing, alienating, fragmenting, and otherwise frustrating. There are many wonderful things in my life, but I'm more likely to talk about what's bad rather than what's good. I'm going to try to post one good thing here each day, and if you would join in by adding a good thing from your day in the comments, I'd love it--I'd absolutely love it. --RR
3/16: a good day
The morning started off a little shaky. Someone from the energy company was walking around our house, looking in our windows, and walking on our deck. He didn't need to read our meter or do anything with our equipment, but (supposedly) he was hoping to get some directions--though he sure went about it in a creepy way. Then we planned to go flying, but the airplane ended up needing to be serviced. So we decided to head out to Cove Creek and try to leave the glitches behind--and we did! We saw lots of wildflowers, and I spotted a snake in a tree. In the afternoon I wrote a bit, finishing up an essay that I'm glad to be done with. After dinner we made banana no-dairy ice cream for dessert, and I went down to the lake for a bit. I also finished Piranesi and am really glad I read it.
