拐弯儿-Mind
今天有段路导航建议绕远，我看着熟悉的小路就拐了，结果碰上临时施工，兜回来比原路更慢。乘客没责怪，我倒一直在解释平时这里有多快，说了几遍连自己都嫌烦。其实熟路也会变，我知道的是以前走通的路，不是今天所有路口的情况。下班以后还在想，如果先看一下路况是不是就省了那十几分钟。也不能每次都看，越看越犹豫，车总要往前开。我准备把最近碰到施工的几个位置记下来，够用了，没必要因为一次绕错就跟导航争谁更懂成都。明天接到这一带的单，先别急着向乘客保证有捷径，到了再看。

عندي برطمانات بذور زيادة عن اللي هزرعه في الحوش، وبنتي تقول وزعيها بدل ما تفضلي تنقليها من رف لرف. التوزيع سهل، بس مين ياخد ويعرف يحفظ ومين ياخد ويرمي لما ينسى الاسم. فكرت أكتب على كل واحدة، خطي يقرأه اللي يعرفه والباقي ربنا يعينه. حفيدتي قالت تكتب لي ورق كبير، أقول لها الاسم والموسم وهي تكتب، يبقى نتأكد الاتنين. مش عايزة أديها شغل كتير فتزهق، نبدأ باثنين بس. أما البذور اللي جبتها من السودان دي تفضل هنا شوية، ما قررتش هعمل بها إيه، ومش لازم كل حاجة في البيت يكون قرارها جاهز النهارده.

休み。娘と風呂で数を数えとったら、私のほうが先にのぼせそうになった。娘は二十の次を何回も十九に戻すけえ終わらん！湯船のふちに座って足だけつけたら、腰の力が抜けて、お腹も普段より柔らかくなった気がした。仕事のときは立つ前から次の動きを考えるのに、ここでは足の指を娘につつかれても逃げるだけ。手の荒れたところはお湯がしみて、そこだけまだ仕事中みたいだった。上がって髪を拭いたら、腕までだるい。今日は大して動いとらんのに眠たいなと思ったら、まだ夜の八時。娘の歯磨きを横で見ながらあくびが出て、今度は私がちゃんと口閉じてって叱られた。

Pour le repas de vendredi j'avais compté les gens de la maison et deux voisins, puis la petite m'a rappelé que sa copine serait là. Elle a raison, j'avais dit oui. Le problème n'est pas de nourrir une enfant de plus, c'est que chaque oui se donne à un moment différent et ensuite tout le monde arrive ensemble. J'ai repris la liste en demandant aux petits de ne pas ajouter des invités qui ne sont même pas au courant. Ils riaient, moi je cherchais surtout combien de poisson prévoir. Les loyers sont plus simples, il y a un nombre d'appartements qui ne change pas entre le matin et midi.

grandma asked to hear the song we practiced and i sang a little into the phone, feeling awkward because everyone at home could hear me performing for a tiny screen. she closed her eyes and listened all the way through, didn't correct anything, then asked me to do one part again. i missed sitting beside her so much for a minute it was actually annoying, i was having a perfectly normal sunday before that. she said my voice sounds grown now. i wanted to say i'm still me but obviously she knows that, she remembered which bit i used to sing wrong when i was little. did that bit right for her this time, thank you God for a call that didn't freeze

disc golf after the garden center, waited until the sun was low enough that the walk from the car didnt feel like another shift
first throw was terrible but my shoulder loosened up after a few, could actually feel the turn through my back instead of just yanking my arm
wrist clicked once, no pain, still stopped doing the throw that makes it happen
sat under a tree and drank the water i had apparently carried around unopened all afternoon
my shirt was damp but the breeze finally felt cool
got home hungry enough to eat the rice straight out of the container before heating the rest, very sophisticated athlete recovery lol

the roommate showed a friend our utilities spreadsheet and they both laughed at the tab names. not cruel laughter, probably, but i was standing right there and felt like a tedious object being demonstrated. said the utilities still needed paying however entertaining they found the process. that made the room awkward, apparently my contribution to the evening. later she brought me some of the takeout they ordered and asked if i was mad. i said annoyed, which she considers the same thing. i'm still annoyed. she could have shown her own bank app if she wanted a comedy segment.

Mon garçon a appelé pour me demander le nom du lac où on allait quand il était petit. J'ai commencé à lui expliquer le chemin pis il a dit papa je veux juste montrer une photo. Bon, mais il s'en rappelait, c'est ça qui m'a fait plaisir. On a jasé du vieux moteur qui voulait jamais partir, lui trouvait ça drôle maintenant, dans le temps moins. Je riais au téléphone tout seul dans cuisine. Après j'ai voulu retrouver ma propre photo, celle où il tient un poisson presque plus gros que son bras. Pas trouvée. J'ai trouvé trois factures qui servent à rien. Maudite organisation, j'aurais dû demander à sa mère.

School wants the serving spoons kept in a different drawer. The new cook says they are closer to the hatch that way. They are. But now you have to cross behind whoever is carrying the trays to fetch one. Been thinking whether to say something or just take the lot out before service. Used to have them where you could reach without moving your feet. I know every drawer in that kitchen and sometimes reach for things at home in the wrong place. Our lass says that might explain the salt in the tea cupboard. Tomorrow I will try putting the spoons out first. Less faffing.

A guest came back down the corridor just to tell me the room looked lovely. I said thank you in my proper hotel voice and then smiled to myself all the way to the linen store. My colleague teased me for looking as if I had received a promotion. I know one compliment does not change the workload, but that woman had actually looked at me, not only at the finished bed. Later my daughter asked why I was buying the biscuits she likes. No big reason. I was in a good mood and wanted us to have something with our tea. Sometimes I wish it took so little to spoil me every day.
