and today this arrives

So, three days ago I made up a little story while I was mowing the lawn, the story in the previous entry.
As you'll recall if you caught that entry, it involved a cloisonné dagger.
So, I was more than a little freaked out when THIS arrived at the house just now.

...Admittedly, not for me but for Wakanomori, BUT STILL.
Of all the thank-you tchotchkes and souvenirs you could send from Korea ...
...It required a signature. The tiny young woman who delivered it was wearing silver bangles with bells around her ankles, and she commented on the fragrance at the front of the house, where we've let a lilac bush expand into all available space.

... I also notably said to one of my daughters the other day that I hoped in the coming year I could get back to working with some high schoolers, and then yesterday, out of the blue, after radio silence for five-plus months, the teacher I've worked with messaged me to ask if I'd work with a kid who's writing a novel.
So yeah.
Real proceed-with-caution vibes.
