I very much want to get in the car and just drive away with no set destination.
for days.
maybe weeks.
It's good to have cargo. Makes us a target for every other scavenger out there, though, but sometimes that's fun too.

It goes moist, damp, soggy.

I was off the computer most of the day. Dentist then mani/pedi. The whole off grid thing is getting real appealing.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Just checked with myself again. Still hate everything.

Am entertaining myself with tales of my five year old niece trying to bargain my sister on when she can wear eyeliner (!!!). She said "can I do it when I'm six?" And my sister said 13, and niece countered with 8! Hahahah!
And my bff's kid, who this weekend we filmed crawling (sort of--army crawl) and we set it to the chariots of fire soundtrack :)

Was just talking about the fact that it's increasingly easy to launch a satellite if you are a civilian, so maybe we can put some sats in LEO and provide our own internet.
I also hope that folks with more skills than I have are working on a mesh network so that we don't have to use ISPs.

Indeed. Tonight is the night of pasta, and wine, and Haagen-Dasz. And The Great Irish Bake Off, which is not as good because no Sue or Mel. But the accents are lovely...

Yeah.
I ate leftovers and some garlic naan, and I've got a chocolate cupcake for dessert.

I made a pot roast tonight, I have chocolate, and I'm going to dye my hair violet.
Radical self-care, y'all.

That's awesome, Strix. And for the record, my autocorrect would really prefer to call you Astrid.
Anyway, since I was in Indianapolis with the journalism students from Thurs - Sun and then immediately went back to school yesterday, I still haven't had a chance to process any of it. I've been teacher-me since the election. I have nearly destroyed my cuticles and have been sleeping like crap, though, so I've got no illusions about what's happening under that layer of denial. I have a feeling when I get home on Friday I may have a bit of a meltdown.
I have been eating comfort food. Lots of chicken tikka masala, which does nothing for the other layer of stress, which is that I've gained 20 lbs and don't fit into half my wardrobe.
Blah. Sorry. This is suddenly very much me me me.
