stormdogI started getting a feel for my new bike a couple days ago. Compared to my physical condition prior to grad school, I'm in awful shape. But cycling the Dutch countryside is fantastic!
I expect I'll be avoiding Amsterdam for the foreseeable future.

This depression/anhedonia/lack of motivation is getting worse.
I need to get some library schools apps together by the end of the month to be considered for Fall and it's really not easy. And I'm not doing the housework I ought to be either.
Today I'm listening to They Might Be Giants and cleaning. Music really helps me feel up to doing things when I can manage to feel good enough to convince myself to start playing it and do something.
