Little Things
Feb. 20th, 2014 10:43 pmIncandescently angry right now. I am reminded of why I shouldn't check my email before bed. It is going to take me some time before I can calm down enough to sleep.
So I'm going to take a page from![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
jjhunter's book and am asking you to share something little (or big) that makes you happy. It could be a cute picture, a song you like, a poem you've read, some moment in your day, something interesting you have been thinking about.
And I am going to share three good things:
1. In an effort to cheer me up, my sweetheart bought me Within Temptation's new album. I love listening to new music and there's nothing quite like some gothic rock to brighten the day.
2. The album includes a cover of "Radioactive" which, while lovely enough doesn't quite live up to what I consider the definitive version... which I went and relistened to once or thrice.
3. Lemon balm or melissa is meant to be one of those calming herbs like lavender. I don't know whether that is true or whether it is the simple act of having a cup of tea that helps. Whatever the case, it is a wonderful thing that it grows like crazy and I have a giant jar full of homegrown lemon balm in the cupboard. I'm going to make a cup now, then go to bed.
