Sorry I havent updated sooner. Truth is that there hasn't been too much for me to write about. I feel like a lot of my other friends have a lot on their plates right now. But I don't seem to (at the moment).
Last weekend Jay and I went to the gay shop. Justin really liked Jay's work, and even wants to collaborate with them. I was so so glad this worked out. I feel like I was telling my two pals like "yall this is gonna be great" and then it /was/ great. It felt good. And Jay is gonna put some stuff for sale there which makes me happy!
Anyway, afterwards, we hung out outside in the yard. It was nice to just hang out. Although acclimating to new social rules is, like, strange and hard sometimes. I offered to finish off a beer of theirs, but, like... covid... so theyre stuck finishing it (or dumping it i suppose which tbqh doesnt bother me like it used to). Idk. plague world is strange. I still want to hug everyone I see.
Like my in-laws, who i adore, fly home this weekend. I haven't seen them in... 9 months or so? Do I hug them? They would have just gone through airports. But I Want to hug them! Do we wait till they change clothes and shower? Does that magically make it better? I know *we're* safe. We've been certain to be good since they're coming. But we could get sick from them if they picked up something in the airport.
UGH. what a stupid world.
Oh tonight we popped by oddwood because Z had to dump trub. Oddwoods dining room basically has become a front storeroom. its just kind of sad to see a place i used to hang out at so different because of the pandemic. the arcade games are off, although there were still signs that said there were sanitation wipes available. The events board is still up, frozen in time, with shit coming up in March. Its just sad. I did, however, get to go to the weird attic crawl space.
The other day a scam kid came by selling door to door magazines, which was so weird. their minimum donation started at like 300 something dollars. and yeah my neighborhood is hella gentrified, but my house doesnt look, like, super nice or anything. definitely doesnt look like giving 300 dollars to some "charity" with no website. That said, i did a quick google and it seems like the kids are getting scammed too (possibly). They work on commission. So basically I offered him 20 bucks. And he TURNED IT DOWN. Even though his paypal and venmo are all thru him "since hes a contractor". Like. I'm STILL CONFUSED. like, buddy, you could just take the 20 and never tell these folks. He was a black kid and kept being like "this is better than me being on the streets" and i straight up said "yeah but weed is more useful and cheaper" lol. He said the bare minimum i'd have to give was 100 bucks. Sorry, bud, go hit up some nicer looking houses.
Anyway thats about it, I guess. I've been playing a lot of pokemon go still and its been nice to walk around. i feel healthier and, i don't know, its just really nice.
I'm also almost through watching cardcaptor sakura. that anime is full of a lot of inappropriate age relationships. Apparently the manga is way worse, but it makes me feel like this anime tries to ... groom small childen into thinking relationships with older men is normal? Its just gross. But I only have 10 episode left, and thats not the main focus, so I might as well finish it.
thats all i got.
