No rockets last night and so far no rockets today. Could this be the first quiet day we’ve had in three weeks? The north and south weren’t so lucky, of course.

Went on a short run within running distance of a shelter, and saw some monk parrots and a crow scrounging for treats in the grass. Small moments of normalcy in the madness we are living in now.

A young woman I work with was drafted on the terrible Saturday of the 7th of October and has been on active duty ever since. I sketched her today, to cheer her up. I hope she gets to come back to the office safe and sound and hang the sketch on her office cork-board.
