Two Dates in One Day
Jan. 28th, 2025 12:09 amToday went pretty well. I had a date with Grace, where we met in a cafe close to me and I read while she worked. Every now and then I pick away at the Jewel in the Skull, a Moorcock book I've kept in my purse for the better part of a year. This place was great, I loved the vibes. I had a cardamom latte that knocked my socks off. Afterward, we stopped in to visit Emma at work and had lunch at a really good Vietnamese restaurant in the neighborhood. You ever have a meal hit the spot so sublimely that you walk outside and think "maybe life IS worth living"? I have. Today.
After a brief shopping trip (and a grocery store donut for dessert) I was invited to Grace's TV Club, which I was happy to attend. They're in the middle of watching Twin Peaks at the moment, and I have never seen it. Why not jump into the middle! They were starting the second season tonight, which was double the normal length. What an odd program. I didn't really expect to follow it all so I was mainly there for the vibes (and the cuddles). I had fun though! Kyle MacLachlan is so pretty in this show, especially when he's bleeding out on the ground.
Written out it's a lot less eventful than it felt. But that's fine. I had a really nice day hanging out with my girlfriend. That's what it's all about, baby!
Later this week we are going to a poetry workshop, and when we do we will likely be expected to bring a poem to discuss/get feedback on. So my main task for tomorrow, other than going to work, is to write a poem. I do like writing poems, though I don't do it much now. I have been experimenting with some verse stuff lately for Umbra-kai reasons, though. That's been fun.
No Veil this week, and Planescape is on hiatus until next month. So I will have to find other things to post about on here. I appreciate the response to my post last week, though being perceived was the last thing I felt capable of enduring at that point in time. It means a lot that I was, as far as I am aware, able to express something deeply personal and difficult without feeling too judged for it. I still felt a little judged; not because I was being judged, but because as I said on X, the everything app, I carry a deep reservoir of shame inside my heart.
Anyway. Enough about that. Work sucks ass this past week and will continue to do so, because we got fucked over with inventory. Somehow we were hugely short on a lot of stuff despite actually having all of it, so we were automatically sent a huge load of freight that we have no space for. And it will continue tomorrow morning. Ah well. At least I will have busywork so I can listen to music and think about my blorbos.
Oh! Last night on my way inside after work, I saw two bunnies! When Grace and I go on walks we rate the walk based on how many bunnies we see because there's a lot of them in her neighborhood. This was a rare two bunny night, and on my own street no less! I think our record was a seven bunny and one rat night. Good stuff.
