I think I've identified one garden weed now, so far: oxalis.  Many varieties, but this one has 5-petaled yellow flowers.  HAD them, as I eradicated all the ones I could find ( Read more... )

i started working on a farm in exchange for the food. probably one of the most interesting aspect is learning about all the weeds.... there's a ton of chamomile and other edible "weeds".

i'm working tonite, too, 'til at least 2 am. in the restaurant world, this is one of the slowest nites.

Thankfully, work was slow last night for me last night. It was my first shift, since returning, that was for a full 8 hours alone with no help. But nothing adverse happened. I somehow managed to not break down. It's a painful feeling when I realize everything is the same, the office, the work, the PC I use, the chair I sit in, the desk, the everything.., all the same. Except now I can't call my sweetheart, make her laugh, and talk her into a drive into the country so we can hunt fossils, have a picnic, and enjoy the trees for a while. Or maybe even do a short canoe float on the Little Miami River. But the dear friend and partner who was always up for anything outdoors isn't here any more. She would always be awake while I worked, and I could call her anytime to share something funny, or just to be sure she's doing okay. Usually she would be bubbling joyfully about having a really good time hanging out with our daughter, her joy coming right through the phone ( ... )

Work sucked badly... there was very little to do, but I was so sleepy I just coudn't get myself awake. Worse yet, I felt physical anxiety, uncontrollable anxiety, running in place at my desk didn't help either, walking around... nothing. My body was over-awake while my mind was asleep. I'd be freezing, then sweating, freezing, then sweating.

After suffering thru six hours of that I woke up my boss to tell him I'm going home. Here I am, afraid to sleep too early now and ruin my day sleep.

At least here I have no responsibilities and can't harm much of anything, unlike being at work. I hope today is better.
