<p>Unfortunately I haven’t been able to exercise much; partly, this is because I haven’t been making the time for it, but I also tweaked my right shoulder somehow and it’s been quite painful to use in every day tasks. <em>Ring Fit</em> is therefore off the table. The trouble is that I genuinely don’t know what I did to it! This week is my last before our holiday break, and I’m hoping to get back on the horse over the course of my 16 (!!) days off.</p>

<p>I briefly contemplated <a href="https://20x200.com/products/stop-talking?variant=10674962884">spending far too much money on a print of Martha Rich’s “Stop Talking,”</a> but I’m far too poor and cheap, even though it expertly captures how I feel lately after work (or interacting with anyone).</p>
|

<p>I’ve been in a strange headspace since turning 30. I feel as though I know myself and the world so much better now, like it’s time to stop wasting all <em>my time</em> on the bullshit and focus instead on what’s really important to me. I have been reflecting on myself a lot lately, but in a present- and future-oriented way: what is it I want to be doing? What really fucking matters? These questions sound quite existential and they are, but they’re also oddly liberating — and it’s driving me to read more and (hopefully) write again. It all feels like coming back home after a long trip, taking comfort and finding peace and joy in the known and loved familiar.<sup id="fnref:1"><a href="#fn:1" class="footnote-ref" role="doc-noteref">1</a></sup></p>

<p>I’m still (re-)reading <em>Pride & Prejudice</em> and I’m just as in love with it as ever. I’m sure it’s revisionist history on my part, but I feel I understand the humor, the plot, the politic far more this time around — but then, I’m always looking back at the past and thinking I’ve grown far older and wiser since when perhaps only the former is true.</p>

<p>Joe and I finished the <strong><em>Emma</em></strong> mini-series that we started last week; I’d seen it before and found it similarly delightful this time around, though I’m beginning to doubt my prior assertions that <em>Emma</em> is Austen’s work (albeit not my personal favorite). Perhaps a re-read is in order…</p>
|
|
<p>I’m also continuing on with <strong><em>Girls</em></strong>; I’m actually enjoying it now (still in season one). There’s some really funny shit in it, but most of the dramatic beats fall short for me. I find Hannah generally insufferable, Adam I’m up and down on, I love what little Shoshanna there is, I’m tepid on Jessa, and I like Marnie.</p>

<li><strong><a href="https://thisishorsegirl.bandcamp.com/track/2468">“2468” by Horsegirl.</a></strong> A random find while stumbling around Bandcamp, but I’m in love.</li>
|
|
<li><strong><em>On the Intricate Inner Workings of the System,</em> The Bug Club.</strong> Pleasant listening but a bit humdrum; few standouts for me as there have been on their other albums.</li>
|
|
<li><strong><em>Alopecia,</em> WHY?</strong> I’ve been listening to “Good Friday,” mainly, and sampling other tracks here and there for years. For some reason I had a line from “These Few Presidents” in my head this week — “even though I haven’t seen you for years, yours is a funeral I’d run to from anywhere” — and it prompted me to at last listen to the album all the way through. I have since been (figuratively) spinning and shuffling it through the week. I’ve not listened to any others of WHY?’s albums — I get the impression they’re variable in quality — but I may give them a shot.</li>
