Snow didn't materialize, outside, a cold drip.

Back feels a bit better this morning, hope it'll last.

After a long time spent cultivating being dispassionate, having genuinely passionate feelings can be pretty difficult, both in the sense of their being hard to stir up & hard to cope with when they arrive. I think I've decided I like them, so they're going to be allowed to stay, will require some sublimation if I don't want to deal with recurring torment & despair, and quite honestly, I don't. I can do sublimation.

There does seem to be some ice mixed in with rain, can hear it clattering on the skylight.
