Addendum, and further gratitude

While I'm still grateful for my imlad, who often does do the dishes in the morning, on the morning I wrote that post it was actually queen_of_wands who'd done it.

Gratitude for my housemate, who does all kinds of neat things in the kitchen when I'm not looking. Wait...that sounded dirtier than I meant...

But there are wreaths of drying herbs and flowers in my kitchen! And pickled green tomatoes, for which I should also thank motive_nuance! And before we gobbled them all up, there were fresh figs.

*droooool*

Yay for housemate and almost-housemate. :)

Fragility

A shriek and a crash outside, the thud horrid with finality even as the car horn drones. I sit and wonder how close it is, where it is, whether anyone is dead tonight outside my window. Through the blinds, sirens blink, the lights screaming loud as their howls.
