Miscellanea
Things I need to remember:
• Asking for help is not, as it turns out, fatal.
• Laughing is easier than pulling your hair out, and doesn't have the unfortunate side effect of making you look like a plague victim.
• Even the biggest tasks can be defeated if taken a bit at a time.
• I can write a paper the night before it's due, but the results are not all they could be.
• Be thorough, but focused.
• Trust yourself.
• Honesty, always.

Date: May 5th, 2014 06:57 am (UTC)One good thing coming out of this is people getting into gardening again in much greater numbers, raising chickens and other small livestock, and participating in organic food co-ops and farmer's markets. That means less money for big Agriculture and eventually, when they notice the cash going elsewhere-- well, I'm guessing some new tunes might start playing.
