“When you throw everything up in the air anything becomes possible.”
― Salman Rushdie, The Satanic Verses
doki doki (Japanese) the anxiety when someone is doing something nervewracking
Note: this word interpretation comes from a dictionary of mine, and I checked online for accuracy. There I found another interpretation, which may mean the above isn’t right (anyone out there speak Japanese?) However, much as I like the above interpretation, I also like the online one, so here it is:
ドキドキ (dokidoki) is a word that mimics the sound of a beating heart. It is used to describe physical/emotional excitement or racing of the heart. It can indicate that someone is thrilled, excited, or nervous
psychiasis – healing of the soul or psyche (something we don’t focus on enough in society)
quoz – absurd person or thing (my favourite kind of person or thing)
How are you all doing? I think I may be getting the hang of this isolation thing, (my biggest problem right now is that a neighbour is playing Amazing Grace extremely loud) but I know many of you aren’t or have serious problems to deal with right now, so please share. Communication is good!
HELLO YOU!!! Amazing Grace. Sing along!! I would…out on the balcony! lol…

I’m glad you’re okay. I am too, but I think I’d go doki doki If I had to keep hearing other people’s music. Have a nice weekend.

Have you ever tried dancing to Amazing Grace? It’s no toe-tapper! Glad to hear you’re okey dokie, and Colin is doing the Hokey Cokey and Nadine is all doki doki. I reckon we’re all going to be fine 😀
