Saturday 04.05.24

Expectations:

to do at least 2 (but hopefully 3) Communication assigments

to do my English homework

to read at least two plays

to add credits to the short film i was editing

Reality:

did half of the first Communication assigment

read half a play and skimmed through a few others

added credits and sent it for feedback (for edits made on a different day, didnt send it back then because i was just missing the credits lmao)

Notes

-Really liked how my handwriting was. Somedays it's really messy, but it was pretty today

- I'm dissapointed I couldnt do more, but I got a migraine so I had to stop. I'll catch up during the week.

today i....

listened to Zeal & Ardor's GREIF again. i listened to Jessy Lanza's Pull My Hair Back for the first time since 2015. i listened to a Laurel Halo album. i rested in bed while my hips ached. i made chicken sandwich with beet salad on iraqi samoon for breakfast. i made swai and angel hair pasta with lemon zest and fresh basil for lunch. i made shortgrain rice with a fried egg and sesame seed, and a squash soup with corn, cilantro, lime, ginger, and green onion for dinner (ate BEFORE i got hungry and because i was simply inspired!). i walked my dog. i wore a cute outfit. i pulled my laundry from the dryer. i did the dishes. i re-listened to an enemies to lovers trope episode on fated mates. i did parts work in therapy and worked out a schedule with them for my lecture stuff. i rested. i showered and brushed my teeth (it was the longest and most purposeful/thoughtful shower i'd ever taken). i snacked on white grapes and fritos (newly discovered to be safe snack options!!!!). i barely thought about my lecture at all. i felt good today, even with the pain so bad i had to avoid walking. i felt an inkling of happiness. very faint but there.

and i made progress with myself

Today I

Forgot to do yoga but did do ballet stuff

Did 15 minutes lights

Got hung up on by clinic phone staff who said she wasn’t tone policing me but didn’t like my tone.

Got bone density test. Nobody told me I had to take my belly button ring off. Fortunately it went back in after.

Tried to organize meeting up with Annie to get my stuff out her barn, finally gave up & told her I’d call her later.

Fed several Little Free Libraries. Their app is so bad.

Don’t know what to do with the dirty books. I know what I want to do with them but they probably have surveillance.

Two people have said they will buy a paper print of this so that pays for printing a dozen. I can offer canvas. And pray they get it close to right.

Will order tomorrow.

Talked to Annie for 2 hours. We made an appointment. I will call her many times on Sat.

Said Happy Birthday to Lake. Doubt I’ll hear back.

Need to finish book I’m reading so I can start library book.

Contemplating a TJs run first thing in the morning for food for 3 day catsit next week.

i’ve started babysitting for a VERY christian family which is great because they pay me a lot of money but as someone who was raised almost completely agnostic it’s kind of insane. the 2 year old keeps asking me to read her stories from the bible. (why are we reading david and goliath to a 2 year old????) the 5 year old told me today that he was going to bring his legos to heaven with him. he also has repeatedly told me that the lego spaceships he builds are stronger than jesus. (not sure what to say to that. do i deny it??? are things allowed to be stronger than jesus??) had to stop myself mid sentence today because i almost told them im not going to heaven which would DEFINITELY have caused several meltdowns. they’re also both completely fascinated by my nose ring

Pros of re-reading your own fic

a good time;

Has exactly the tropes you like and the characterization you want to read;

Gratification: yes you did finish a thing and yes you did do good;

just a very fun time all around.

Cons of re-reading your own fic:

Is that another TYpO

today i....

practiced my sing by running througb vocal exercises. i practiced my spanish. i watched 3 graduate lectures and 1 lecture by faculty. i did a load of laundry. i did a load of dishes. today i wrote poetry. i body scanned 3 times to check in with myself. in the morning, i read the introduction of Narrative Theory Unbound: Queer and Feminist Interventions and felt invigorated for the rest of the day. i read Before Island Is Volcano by Raquel Salas Rivera. the english and spanish side. i did yoga for my nervous system to usher away my headache. i picked out outfits and jewelry for thursday and friday. i drank water. i made breakfast. got a smoothie. made a snack. i read another chapter of Brothers Karamazov. i listened to another two chapters of American Royalty. i walked my dog for 25 minutes and felt alright. i showered. i began skincare again, hoping to get back into the routine. i organized my jewelry. i organized the Scripture Study Curriculum into a spreadsheet. i planned out a course for a project with my advisor over emails. i listened to an album. and now i will go make tea for my rebounding headache and wind down for the night.

this is the first day ive ever gotten everything done that i wanted to on my daily task list on my weekly planner since i got it, and this might be the first time since i began the planner that i'll have gotten everything done on my top priority list and my low priority list as well as the Follow Up list. the only thing that i didnt get done was a meeting with a collaborator but that was due to the collaborator's ill health and need for stabilization so im not counting that as "not done" but simply "rescheduled".
