It's such a strange job, playing blackjack on the deck
Yesterday was very full of doctors. Afterward I fell over. Today has been spent mostly in the same mode. It's very frustrating. I spent this entire month so exhausted that I had run out of clever ways to describe it even before I got sick. I don't seem to have any kind of energy at all. I did have things I'd like to be doing.

I am for the third year a tradition on classicist Tumblr. I have also been incorporated into a collage. I feel like I have a legacy. This ghost poem I did not write for Lucan is also pretty great.
I loved Winifred Holtby's South Riding (1936) and now have a much harder time taking the ending of the film, with apologies to Ralph Richardson, at all seriously.
The explosively fuchsia ground cover that looked from a distance like a shag carpet crossed with a baking soda volcano turned out to be phlox.

Those are beautiful flowers, and also I am glad you enjoyed South Riding! (As I think I said before, I cannot remember much about it, but enough to suggest I probably should have read it later and appreciated it more.)

Depending on what happened with the Doctors, it might have been pleasantly distracting! (I would also have settled for an era with really good medicine.)

Thank you! I think it is funny that the novel has existed for so long, I was almost unaware of it until a couple of weeks ago, and now it may be important to me.
