mister meets archie after many moons. archie is still nuts, but sweet nuts, and i only say a word to mister and he says his peace and i'm proud that he can stay firm and present and communicate even when he might be a little annoyed or afraid. 
i was thinking about annoyance this morning, and how like fear, one point becomes quickly a constellation sometimes and follows you around making new points along the way, but also how one annoyance or fear squarely faced might simply dissipate, or become connection.
