Paintings of Polaroid pictures of thoughts in our heads

I perhaps overexerted myself over the course of my first day out in the wild with sufficient voice and stamina to attend an evening rehearsal rather than survive a doctor's appointment and am therefore second-guessing every single one of my interactions with other human beings and feeling generally terrible about myself and my prospects. For this reason I am repeat-listening to Alice Donut's "Where Is My Mind?" It is a thoroughly punk and entirely instrumental cover of the Pixies song in which the part of Black Francis is played by a trombone. I adore it. It's so doleful. It sounds like it's looking under the couch cushions.

yhlee did a one-card reading for me from the Shadowscapes Tarot and it came out the Ace of Pentacles. "This points to the possibility of prosperity, security, and abundance, and seeing rewards for hard work; energy spent will see returns. Good fortune and wisdom." It looks like a suit full of chameleons, dragons, and trees. Here's hoping.

(Subject header and music supplied by the previous song I was repeat-listening to, until I realized it was maybe not a good idea.)

There should be more trombone punk.

The Ace of Pentacles is an excellent card.

Right?! It's like Lora Logic's saxophone. It makes everything instantly better.

The Ace of Pentacles is an excellent card.

I am still not in a frame of mind where I can believe it, but it was a good thing to see.

That trombone needs to get together with Resistance Tuba.

The Ace of Pentacles is a splendid card: it's time that it turned up for you. May that fortune come true.

THEY WOULD MAKE BEAUTIFUL MUSIC. I MEAN THAT LITERALLY.

Aw, I hope things do improve a bit more soon. :-/ And may that good fortune indeed come your way!

I sort of half-thought you were kidding. I'm glad I listened and you were not.

It makes me so happy.

Possibly due to my listening to the Alice Donut ‘Where Is My Mind,’ Youtube has just offered me the Hot 8 Brass Band covering “Love
Will Tear Us Apart”: https://youtu.be/fBuTK-E0gxo

I see how we got here. That was great.
