Cocooning

COCOONING looks like a bad idea. General wisdom holds that if you're going through a lot you should be surrounded by advice-mongering people. But pupae are fragile and easily crushed underfoot by accident. It can be hard to hear yourself when other people are talking; hard to see yourself when other people are looking.

There's not much to do in the cocoon, so I mostly just listen to New Amerykah Part I and file my nails and write weird stuff like this here. The cocoon is a bit stuffy, but the acoustics are superb.

Chrysalization is not often fun. But hopefully I earn some wings.
