    IM GOING TO SEE THE NEW JURASSIC WORLD MOVIE! My mom just ordered the tickets online as a surprise! Im so excited, holy shit yes. One of my longest standing special interests is getting more content to sperg over
    :hussiedance:

    Edit: puting a spoiler on just in case my super vague description of a scene is gonna ruin part of the fun

    It was fantastic! Warning though, theres a super fucking sad bit that made me cry and thinking about it makes me wanna cry more

    Finally got the monster zit behind my ear to pop, so I can drain it. (It's also...super gross, and I wasn't actually trying to pop it at the time.)

    Strangely, learning that the legend of Stan Rogers' death (that he was helping people escape from the plane when the flash fire happened) was a lie (because of how there were 90 seconds between crash and fire) BUT that the same crash is why there are smoke detectors in plane lavatories and emergency lights along the aisle floors. I don't know why it makes me happy, but... it does.

    Also, yesterday at work someone called in about one of our seeds, and I was bracing myself for a complaint that probably was actually "I'm gardening without reading or following the instructions on the packet", but they were actually just so thrilled with our cucumbers that they wanted to get a catalog of all our seeds so they could see what we have and buy more. That was a very pleasant surprise.

    Sethrial MacCoill Attempts were made

    So I got into a low level manic episode for a few days from tuesday to saturday, set off by a decently good thing happening and continuing because that thing kept happening. (the thing was that i got a new fountain pen that writes extraordinarily well. I'm easy to please.) I wrote every spare second i could for four days straight, banged out 10,000 words, and only stopped because my pen ran out of ink and it'll be a few days before I can write with it again because the cartridges are brand-specific and not sold in any local stores, unless i want to buy a whole new pen. at the end of my manic phases are always depressions. this one wasn't looking to be too bad because the mania wasn't too high, so the slump wouldn't be too low, but depressions still aren't fun and I have shit I need to do. Part of the depression was that I couldn't find the second ink cartridge that came with my new pen so my period of insanely high productivity was cut artificially short.

    Then I was grabbing stuff out of my car today and what did I find but THE FUCKING INK CARTRIDGE! MANIC EPISODE IS BACK, BABY!

    Sinh to bo is "ripe avocado blended with ice, sugar, and sweetened condensed milk" and tastes like green vegetably happiness. I could happily drink one of those every other day for a month, at least.

    Also, beef tendon is delicious, and I'm so glad that I dared to try the "adventurer" section of the pho menu. (Not quite as glad that Matesprit oops'd and got Housemate and I both the spicy broth, because holy crap they are not messing around with the spice level here.)

    The answer key for the entrance exams I took a couple weeks ago is out, and while I only got the transcript for my answers of the day 2 test because I'm a huge dumbass, I got either partial or full points in all but one of the twenty questions! Sadly the writing grade isn't out yet, and as I said I didn't get the transcript for days 1 and 3, but getting around a 90% in Portuguese, Literature and English as MFL feels... pretty nice.

    ANNOUNCEMENT: i was able to cross "hold and pet a chinchilla" off my bucket list today! She was so soft, as many other chinchilla holders can attest. I'm talking like, indescribable softness. It was wonderful.

    My partner was talking about Dike, the goddess of Justice, but I realized the proper pronunciation is, essentially, D.K. and all I could think of was Donkey Kong. Justice Ape!

    recently worked up the courage to ask a fanfic author I really liked who was no longer posting on ao3 if I could read their fanfic, and they said I could and then shared their new stuff with me!!!!

    I had a really good day today - went to the beach with my sibling for the first time in years, then came home and ate junk food while watching Elementary. I love the beach and the ocean and swimming so much, I’m really glad we decided to go today. The sunburns are totally worth it

    My mom just finished helping book my flights for the concerts I’m going to in November!! I’m seeing TMBG two nights in a row, the first time with some long-time friends from an old forum (I’ve known these people since I was 12 and we’re finally gonna meet face-to-face!), the second with a different but equally awesome friend I met through the band. And while I’m in Toronto I’m gonna hang with my awesome cousin!!

    I can’t believe this is really happening aaaaaaaaah
