    Laundry. So much laundry. Went to the grocery store, got stuff to cook tomorrow, and only came back with one weird "I wonder what that tastes like?" impulse buy. Dishes. Now I'm going to go bring in the mail and call that enough adulting for one day. Cartoons await!

    I did all my dishes minus the 8 cups that accumulated; which i set out to soak and will get later! I also did my roommate's dishes to make space in the sink! And I made a dinner that requires stove, oven, and an hours' baking time!!!! I haven't had spoons for so much kitchen productivity in such a long time >w<

    I've been accomplishing things like crazy today!

    Woke up and watched the first episode of Trollhunters (thank you @Carnivorous Moogle!) and enjoyed it very much! That probably doesn't sound like much, but I've been having the hardest time watching stuff, and then a worse time stopping after a reasonable amount. This was good.

    Called in the refill on my thyroid meds before heading downstairs.

    Inspired by the main character's kitchen prowess, I went to the fridge to examine my own options. Acquired leftover spaghetti from yesterday's dinner. Beheld the bacon in the meat drawer and the onion in the pantry. Made spaghetti carbonara for breakfast.

    My dad informed me he was going to the pharmacy. Asked him if he could grab my prescription as well.

    Remembered to start the coffee before chopping onions so it was ready when I was finished eating. Had a nice, leisurely post-breakfast coffee enjoyment time. Swiveled the recliner so I could bask in the sun.

    Cleaned the fucking frying pan, which is maybe technically dishwasher safe but way too big and popular for that to be a reasonable option. Cleaned up all the dishes I'd used, as well as my coffee mug, for great justice!

    My dad returned with my refill. Took all my meds.

    Took a shower and managed to both wash hair and shave legs. I can't take showers long enough to do those things well unless I have recently eaten and hydrated, or I get faint from the heat. But the carbonara sustained me, and all was well. I now have a towel turban on my head, and my legs are all smooth and smell of lemongrass from the lotion I used.

    I don't even feel like I've used all my spoons yet. I'm certainly not complaining, but how did this happen?

    ETA: Took a walk! It was brief, but it was outside and it was exercise.

    Saro Where is wizard hut

    Not all today, but:

    Organized my desk. Cleaned and disinfected the toilet, cleaned the vanity sink top, Windexed the mirrors (even the strip behind the lights). Looked into banks to open a new joint checking account because neither of our old banks are local. Got refills for 4 prescriptions. Swept, vacuumed, and vacuumed the couch. Made some soup.

    Still gotta use the ground turkey in the fridge, but that should be easy.
