Beans

I found this application that tracks your mouse movement in the background for however long you let the program run. I think the visualization is really beautiful. (And telling? Maybe not.)



For a lot of reasons--and none that were extraordinary in any way--I had a really rough two weeks. It culminated yesterday with my feeling totally at a loss and really uncomfortably anxious about everything. But I spent the night with my new friend Mae, who is just the coolest, and it fixed everything.

I think I just got so wrapped up in school and how much I have to do (that I really don't care to do at all) that I forgot to breathe. So I spent Wednesday on the verge of something awful because I had no perspective. And now I do, thanks to spending time with Mae and her roommate Tabby. Who is Mae's cat.

I had the most encouraging feeling when I woke up today because I have this new friend and she is exactly the kind of person I want to know, and I am done with my rut because I decided to be. I had big plans for my day, and while I did clean out the shower drain and I can now take a shower without ending up in a bath, I didn't exactly get many things done. Except the chili. I made chili today, all day, because I had to go buy more ingredients and crock pots take their time. I had been craving it, so I made it, and it was good. Is good. The ten gallons we have left will be good. And Glenn came over to have dinner, which was a nice thing.

And tomorrow, more of the doing! (And more chili.)
