I bought a Croton v Petra; then I sprayed it with water, turned a fan on, and left the window open all night. Needless to say (ha, just kidding, you all needed me to say it; I was just humoring you), a Croton does not like cold drafts and has since dropped its bottom leaves. That is okay; the top leaves are where it's at. It has a sprout; I am trying to decide if it is a mushroom or a new plant. Kelly says mushroom; I optimistically say new plant.
Optimistically? Why yes! I'm being optimistic again. I am always leery of placebo and nocebo effects, so I shy away from making strong statements about patterns in my own behavior. I can't decide whether I am going through extended cycles of up and down, or if things are just happening at random to change my mood, and that's how it appears at this point. Anyway, one day I suddenly felt like vet school was a challenge instead of a task, and ever since then I've felt great. Hopefully this lasts!
Banana muffins are excellent; banana smoothies are excellent; banana chocolate-chip peanut-butter pancakes are excellent. Doing dishes is not excellent, but certainly less not excellent than the excellence of the associated task.
I have an exam tomorrow; I have to do pretty well on it. By "have to" I mean, would like to. I need to replace the ice cream I ate. The other day Lisa and I had ice cream from Rite Aid; I had a triple scoop and it was awesome (cherry, chocolate brownie, and mint chip.)
Okay; if I continue developing positive mental habits as I have been this week, maybe a return to Xanga is in order, with an increase in pictures from my camera. I believe this was a goal for me at some point, and I forgot about it.
And now, on to studying small animal medicine! Diagnosis Wenkebach!
