We are going to try and publish my thesis, but I have to edit it to read like an article and I have no idea what I am doing and it's doing my head in.

Blood has arrived. My legs hurt and I feel fat. But I still really want cadbury chocolate.

Butterfly season is on the edge of bursting open. Ignore everything the Butterfly Conservation tells you about phenology. Everything is a month earlier nowadays.

Scarlet Tiger babies at the allotment. I found them like this on a piece of wood on the ground. Bit weird as they kinda looked pupation-y. Especially with the silk. But far too early to pupate. So obviously not. Or...
Three black caterpillars with yellow stripes and tiny blue spots on a piece of wood. Some thin silk is on the wood too.

There's a housing development in the next village from mine. I really want to be their woodland and butterfly woman. God I'd love to shout at a bunch of construction men. Maybe I should cold email them.

I could not be more exhausted. I need a week just to decompress from job panic and university stuff. I just want to be human without qualification.

I am married to the bud burst My tail tinged with rose Hidden within woodgrain Dressed by the snow After coated in slumber Ordained by the sun I recieve new commandments To lace the leaves with new brunt My branches sometimes stir When the sky monsters sit But I am not fearful In refuge I fit

I would like somebody to teach me how to do copywriting because I know how to do that. But they must not shout at me and they must pay me enough. I am very afraid.

I am very sad today because I am worried about getting a job after I graduate. It seems all the writing jobs need you to be a 'Medical Writer' whatever that is or to train AI which will probably take your job once you are finished training it. I am very sad.

The queen of spring breathes Concrete is blessed by shadow Of flora genesis-fed by sun But blossom bears the brunt Of her quick wiles Drawn from fresh fury After the beating cold torture We are granted reprieve And covered with mercy A while we are saved Then the clouds gather again And we wait

Lots of noise atm about polychloros and him buggering his way around the south coast. Also, according to M, iris is wide awake at Sav. Just as the penny drops as they say. In Wales there is not a damn thing except io, a comma and one white I saw a few days ago. Time to verbally abuse forestry men
