torquillI came up to do the market garden this morning. I felt appreciated as one of only three students there today, but it's getting to the point that things are dusty, and I was pulling weeds between tasks. I'm not sure the stains will come off my hands for a while.
I'm actually grateful that my usual Thai restaurant is so forgiving... it wasn't until I was about to be served my lunch that I realized how dusty and grass-stained I was. That was without the dust marks all over my side, which I didn't think to look for.
I was feeling so selfconsciously grubby after lunch that I went to the ARC, rinsed off in the shower, and pulled my emergency clothes out of my locker for the first time. They were originally put there in case I got soaked by rain, but this seemed like a good cause. (Mental note: put a towel in there too. And some soap. And a scrubby-towel and hair-stick...)
Ohhhhh my gods and goddesses, the difference. I should do this more often. I feel much more relaxed and revived, and I even feel presentable for my academic counseling and the final after that. Even if my fingers are still halfway to black from pulling nightshade and lamb's quarters.
I'm tired today, nothing much can help that. But I'm happy.
