Another good day.

It started as always with coffee and breakfast. I took time to write my blog from last night and to actually enjoy the fact that I got through a ton of stuff yesterday. I looked at the daily prompts but was left uninspired.

I went about mapping out my day, and before long was dressed and about to head out the door. As I was leaving I actually got a call from my mom. Total score. I had been meaning to chat with her.

I talked with her all through my adventure to the storage unit, which was uneventful and successful. Huzzah.

I drove to the pet store for cat food, which is where most of our conversation happened. Since I would need to interact with a sales associate I stayed in the car talking with mom until we were both talked out. It was awesome and I’m glad we both had the time to talk.

After hanging up with her I bought a $40 bag of cat food… I’ve never spent that much on cat food at one time. I always get the little five pound bag of Meow Mix. I’m sure it’s not the best food for Scarlet. It’s certainly not the all natural, super amazing cat food that Zane and John feed their cats.

I’m not really complaining about switching Scarlet over to something healthier. I think it’s actually a good thing. And it’s fair that it is my turn to buy the food since Zane bought it the first month, and John got it last month. It’s just a lot, and another thing I need to realign myself with.

I stopped at the gas station on the way home to pick up Gatorade since I was planning on running later in the day. They have a deal that’s 2 for $3. I like the new lemonade flavor they have out at the moment. I hope it’s not a limited time thing where they get you hooked on it and then take it away for the rest of forever… That would suck.

Zane was awake when I got home. We ended up finishing off Jurassic World.

I love that movie. No joke. Two hours of my life for two seconds of a velociraptor riding a t-rex. Best two seconds ever. My life is now complete and I can die fulfilled.

In all seriousness though, despite the plot holes I really enjoyed the movie. It brought back a lot of childhood nostalgia for me. Jurassic Park was the first ‘scary’ movie I was allowed to watch. I can still remember how there was a giant glare on the tv screen due to the sun coming through my grandmother’s living room windows, and how the carpet was itchy, but I wanted to be close to the tv so I could see what the dinosaurs were doing.

At 3 I went to the gym where I had a fantastic run. I had thought with my legs, specifically my hip flexors, being sore that my run was going to suck. But nope. It was amazing. Ran about a 16 minute mile.

I had just enough time after stretching to come home, shower, pack dinner, then head to school.

The first lab was busy with questions, but I was able to eek out enough quiet time to pick a font for my next assignment and to research into it. More on that later. Big thing is that I was able to progress in the school side of things.

The second lab is been pretty chill. I was able to get through half of my grading. I only have 5 more projects to go, but I need to take a break from it for a bit before finishing it off. I can only handle looking at the same thing for so long. It does’t help that the handful of projects that I’ve been grading actually haven’t been all that awesome. As a whole the class is doing well. I guess I just got the bad draw on this batch of grading.

I also had a chance to make a new post on Behance for my Attis assignment. Shameless self-promotion. Like a bawce.

Really that’s about it.

Luis and Nicole are in the lobby with Magic the Gathering cards so I’m going to be playing a match with them before leaving work.

I’m not allowed to eat or drink anything other than water for the blood work tomorrow. I’m trying super hard not to think about that because it will just make me more nervous and anxious.

I’m debating on finishing off the grading or going to sleep when I get home. I guess it really depends on how awake I am. I might save it for the SAL lab tomorrow. I’ll be able to get through 5 projects in roughly an hour; less if they’re super good, or super bad. It’s the halfway ones that take the longest time to grade.

So, yeah. Good day today. Not looking forward to tomorrow. I’m off to go rain death and destruction down with my red deck. >:3
