sometimes i’m like remember when i got hospitalized and then a week later a tree branch fell on my car windshield and i could barely make it through a day at work bc of the meds for the newly diagnosed disorder that caused me to be hospitalized and then our family dog had to be put down and i went on anti anxiety meds that made me feel crazy and then i thought my girlfriend was going to break up with me and then i got bedbugs and had a minor oral surgery bc why not and then i hit a massive low in my mental health and then my girlfriend actually did break up with me… this was all the first 6 months of 2024 and it all already feels like it all happened to a different person

I asked a friend to go pick some mint while I went to the greenhouse to get lemon balm, for our herbal tea, and soon after she left she called from the garden "How do I tell the mint and stinging nettle apart in the dark...?" then immediately added "You're about to say the mint smells minty while the stinging nettle stings. Don't!!" and it made me smile and I wished I could take a screenshot of these words, just to keep a little written trace of this uneventful evening. Sure I can write it down (as I am doing), but then I felt wistful about all the other trivial exchanges I don't get to archive. I know with texts and such a lot of them are in written form nowadays and can be saved, but I've always wanted to save everything. I think from now on I'm going to ask my friends to take a monastic vow of silence when they come to my house so they'll have to write everything down, preferably on stone tablets so computer issues and house fires can't make their words disappear. Yes. This way I will finally become cool and laid-back about memory and loss and the ephemeral nature of existence.
