-4° again this morning, so I took a short run. The muscles over my cheekbones — especially the left side, the side of my face that was smashed when I was beaten up in secondary school — are twitchy, which I ordinarily associate with weariness and stress. This morning, though, begins three days free from fuss and bother, so I’m not sure what’s going on there. Whatever the cause, it’s half term, I’m going to take things easy, and that’s that.
