vital functions
Feb. 14th, 2021 11:39 pmWriting. An "agenda" for a Science Meeting this week coming, on the general topic of : 2k words, 8 figures, 1 table, but hey, that's more-or-less what was requested, so. And! I have started typesetting chapter 2.
Watching. CXG S02E08 "Who Is Josh's Soup Fairy?" Some really interesting things going on this episode still about the influence of apologies' contexts on their functional forms and such.
Listening. A bunch of Indigo Girls: they are particularly good for singing along to while I continue attempting to work out what my voice is even doing these days.
Playing. Among Us! A few rounds of Fluxx with Adam! Lots of dragons! Small quantities of horn! And also a Giant Jigsaw Puzzle.
Cooking. Very little, because...
Eating. ... this has been the week of "get delivery of, approx, oven meals, from a bunch of fancy restaurants, using buy-some-fancy-food vouchers from A's employer". ( Read more... )
The third and final voucher has gone on a three-month subscription to Ruby Violet, who are now doing UK-wide delivery.
Growing. At home: the basil seeds are all coming up, even the ones I didn't expect to! The passion fruit are not yet doing anything (visible)! I have sorted out and catalogued all the seeds from the mouldering ancestral pile, most of which are doubtless dead but which can nonetheless go in the ground eventually! I have I think worked out that at least some of the lemon's problem is that it wants watering much more than any of the books Suggest it might over winter! I have also sorted the shallots...
... and, with A's Significant Help, today made my first trip to the allotment in... about six weeks. ( Read more... )
Observing. Because I have left the house at all: snowdrops! daffodils!
... and from the comfort of our living room: a miscellaneous bird of prey, too far away for us with our mediocre birding skills to identify, which was swooping gloriously out past the conifers in the back garden.
Along, as ever, with glimpses of the fox, which I continue fond of in an abstract sort of way.
