Rainy all day here— April showers. Country’s in a drought, so we certainly need it.. S’s flower pics are cheering. I asked our orchids, Symbiot or parasites on wine, and it said they can be both, but I did not realize they grow off fungi which provides the moisture. If symbiotic orchid provides fungus with food; if parasitic, nada.
I woke up dreaming about wasps/bees, trying to create/construct small resin pyramids with pieces of the products, supervising 2 large groups of students along with two expert mentors who provided food, especially soup, that I attempted to eat while working. Pressure. It wasn’t going well.
I told JP about the 2024 Statham movie, saying everyone should watch at least its first half hour because it reveals how scary professional phishing scams are; really opened my eyes about that. Fox News this week showed images of a whole compound of buildings somewhere that uses slave labor/locked in captives to work the phones. But I can’t find a picture of it online. A whole complex of factory style buildings had grown from one, rooftop shots. The workforce was poor people, maybe women, enticed by job offers then locked in dormitories and forced to do the phone work.
Sunshine, no wind, pleasant temp. Doesn’t take a lot to make a grand day sometimes. Especially if I leave off the tv.
Another murderous attack on the president. It seems so hopeless. Bongino said the IRA said , we only have together lucky once, the have to get lucky every day, when attacking Thatcher. A said Kennedy said essentially the same thing. One Democratic congresswoman tweeted “Stop trying to murder the President,” God bless her.
Felt like the sick days I took when working: weak, sleeping, achy everywhere. Doesn’t feel real, but certainly incapacitated.
In town with A for haircut. Walked Red on Bayside Trail. Encountered Most pitiful, homeless man I’ve ever seen. Shopped at all these for the first time and came home dead tired, just in time for German webinar.
