fireflies in the backyard <3

I would like to announce that I have healed my relationship with the number 4

finished rewatching Hannibal last night. so. having a really hard time focusing at work today due to the internal keening.

worked a cotton candy booth for the first time today. slightly breezy day. got absolutely webbed in the stuff. it was in my hair. it was crisscrossed in clumps across my clothes. it was feathered from my eyelashes. my dipping arm would periodically become so cocooned that my booth partner would take off wads of it to eat. two separate children asked if i was okay

inoculated by the waters of Gichi Gami (snorted some lake while swimming)

I have now planted everything in my living fence! I have elderberry, hazelnut, mulberry, American plum, American persimmon, blackcap raspberry, and honeyberry/haskap. And even better, everything except the honeyberry was free! The raspberries were already on the property when I arrived, the mulberry planted itself (naturally), and the rest I acquired over the past two years through people I know. I have already been feasting on the raspberries and mulberries (they are like little candies!) and am looking forward to a few years out when I can share the bounties with my neighbors.

they tell me I'll catch more flies with honey than vinegar but I am sick of catching flies

I've done a lot of work on my house and yard over the past couple years and it's looking so so good! I wish I could share pictures to show it all off, but my partner requested that I not post those photos on the internet, which I respect. So just like, imaaaagine it~
