Began the day at the Y, the hardest and best workout since my return, and the one with the least staggering about afterward. 

Planted houseplants I’d snipped and rooted in jars on the window sill. 

Driving back from rehearsal, my headlights caught my rabbit in the back yard. Turned off the lights as fast as I could, so his terror would be brief.
