Feeling Good

I’ve always had a passion for fashion, which, can be argued, is an underrated form of art - albeit a more lucrative one than poetry.

Wouldn’t it be nice if I could try on some fancy summer clothes to forget about the cold and windy month of March outside?  Not happening, though.

To compensate for this frustration, let’s list activities that can act as mood boosters.

Bullet point form, please.

Time is at a premium for everyone.

• Amaretto coffee – Turkish-style preparation

• Take out the garbage – wow, another week has gone by

• Spotify: K-pop hits vs. Bach’s violin concerto. Because I’m a hypocrite, I choose Bach, although K-pop is my preferred option.

• Scent – lime or freshly sliced lemons? Neither – let’s go with chopped parsley.

• Get behind the wheel to fill up on gas.

• Tiny piece of dark chocolate

• Avoid writing like the plague.

How do you feel now?
