weeknotes 32.20
i dont know why, but marshall mcluhan keeps popping up in my life. i wonder what that could mean. what is the message.
anyways, here is the vibe for this weeks notes, slightly different night vibes instead of my usual 9 am typing.
eating: this cake i've made 4 times this week as a dessert to my dinner which was poutine.
drinking: long drink. best option i have for a chuuhai vibe (gin is also my liquor of choice because i love herbs and shit)
listening: unironically this because i was not aware this was an option lmao. its mostly background noise. but this whole channel is great. but also the night in the woods vinyl is iconic.
i love my very healthy diet of cake, french fries and alcohol!!
i think i struggle to do things to blog about during my 4 day work week. even looking at my journal the only random note i put was 'anemoia soup' which even i dont remember what i meant by that. but the weather was also awful (for me), totally stay in bed weather. tomorrow is supposed to rain. luckily the last few days have been sunny. its also sad that the two weeks almonds are blossoming the weather is rainy and gloomy whenever its convenient for me. i live probably 2 miles from the closest almond orchard. its just really nice to see driving around and seeing miles of blossoming trees. the magnolia tree in front of my house is also blooming. im not sure what that groundhog said this year but spring feels like its here already. i say that as the sierras are getting absolutely obliterated by snow and so are nathan and sean on the east coast. but please let me look at flowers and think life is getting better. i mentally need this.
but i need something to do after work. i actually get too tired mentally to do anything. i do think sunlight would help me think its not time to sleep as soon as i get home though. but really i spend this time in my head. like adding to the list of random things that i must accomplish in boston when i go and visit nathan, sean and olivia.
anyways. i'm saving everyone from talking about books every week and i have started my draft of all the books i've read so far this year. and i'll post it year end. and then i can have spoilers. this also might be because i need to post something besides weeknotes!! which no one is forcing me to do but even i get bored of my own posts. i actually found my draft of my japan trip in october and i even got bored when reading that. either its a shitty post or something is wrong with me and i'm getting sick of myself.
i've decided to earnestly work through my physical books. i'm not sure how many i have because i have multiple stacks of books in different places. i'm going to blame the library and my kobo because the convenience of it really made me slack on reading books physically. it did not stop me from buying them though!! souvenir books are terrible to justify because thats how i've gotten the majority of these. i've been really considering reading the international booker prize. i've looked at a few predictions and there are a few that have been on my list to read so i may read those. but its really up to the flip of a coin tomorrow if i buy 12 or 13 more books. and the goal is stop adding the number of physical books i own but oops, oh well.
i saw my grandparents this week. not to make myself seem like a shitty granddaughter i see them at least every month, generally every other week. but this time was longer and its been nice. also because they hung up on me on the phone thursday and then put their phone on DND so that was worrying lol. they also gave me 4 dozen eggs, from one of their "neighbors" who lives like 6 miles away. which continues into my problem of receiving 18 bananas, which showed up at my house today at my sliding door and idk who they are from. i act as if this abundance is a problem. but it is lent and i am catholic and this sort of self-indulgence is actually suffering. i'm joking but i'm not joking about the 8? loaves of banana bread i will be making tomorrow. if you know me irl and are local pls ask me about banana bread. i dont have enough freezer space. i know i can freeze bananas. but i cannot visually stand the look of a frozen banana and still think its edible. so i must freeze it in bread form.
i should say something about lent, lunar new year and ramadan being the same time.
anyways i have actually spent so long writing this post i am going to make second dinner. nick said "its drunk hunger" which i'm following up with "drunger" and this is what happens when you date for 8? years. oh and i'm not sick anymore (please read that to the tune of illits not cute anymore) bye!!
