It’s a gloomy March day in NYC, and I have my paints out and plan to dissociate with color therapy all day long. Painting is my coping right now, along with such time-honored Coping Favorites as Italian wine (which might be unaffordable within days!) and good ol’ fashioned American junk food like Doritos. Doritos have been there for me in times of trauma for as long as I can remember.
Wherever in the world you are (my subscribers hail from 36 countries, which I think is fucking awesome), I hope you are having a quiet Sunday, if that’s possible. This grey overcast bullshit has me dreaming of sunny beaches, so I made a playlist of songs that remind me of the sea, or reference it directly. It is designed to be mellow. It’s very much an “edibles and chill” sort of playlist, but would also make a good soundtrack to your Sunday meal prep, if that is a thing you do.
