I just realized that I cast myself memory spells all the time.  Or maybe not memory, identity,  IN my room, from where I am sitting, I can see eight glass containers all full of random very small things that I have decided to keep around, either on bookshelves or on top of the rolltop desk I keep my altar in.     

This first one I picked up has tiny shells and seaglass and rocks, mostly, from places like Marshfield and Revere Beach and that beach town in CA and probably a couple illicit pieces from the virgin islands and hawaii.  But it also has a tiny Boggle (the pen topper from a novelty board game penl).  There's a piece of the metallic confetti from a burlesque show at Oberon.  There's a wooden coin from a kickstarter that says "good for one cup of chai" on one side and the a cup with the legend "Homegrown goods and services, value from the ground up", a fauxpearl topped stick pin that I'm pretty sure is from the last time I had a corsage (probably high school), a pin that says "I'd rather be playing video games" a lego flame from a harry potter set, a pewter cat and kitten, a rhinestone from a skirt I used to have, a tree charm from Oberon Designs that came free with the an old leather ereader case, a tiny egg charm with a key inside it, a charm of the viking compass my little brother Mech gave me back in highschool, a plastic faceted black bead from a necklace Abundance gave me and button from an old pair of pants.  

Tomorrow, my darling hope is that I send out a bunch of mail.  And continue to decipher the pin loom instructions.  And maybe make a cake or enchiladas or both.  

Immediately after announcing my problems reading, I listened to the entirety of Kindred today.  I don't think it was because it was a re-read, but I'm going to try a different new-to-me book tomorrow and see if that goes as smoothly.  

Google Maps just sent me the automatic summary of my april movements.  Why yes, Google, thank you for reminding me that I've been home, to Stop'n'Shop, to Cambridge Naturals/Porter Square Books, Delight's house for driveway dates, the micocenter parking lot and Honeycomb Creamery.  I've politely requested that Abundance drive me somewhere we can see the ocean in the near future.
