Up at 7:30 this morning, which is still an improvement over 5:30. I appreciate it, body. It still means that I'm the only one up at now 8:30, which is nice. I like the relative quiet when I only have to sit here telling the one cat Gracie to stop hissing at her sister, Boodle. If I have to tell a cat to behave, it's probably going to be Grace. She's the queen of the household, and she can be a real bitch. She picks on poor Sam, hisses at Boodle. Boodle for her part seems nonplussed by the hissing, though once she got her shit together enough to bop Grace on the nose. You would think after 10 years, Grace would have gotten over her miff with Boodle, but nope.
With the mask mandate being lifted in Maryland (Seriously? What happened to "When 70% of the population was vaccinated?), I decided that it was a good time to try on all my jeans, since there's a possibility they'll want to bring us back to the office. Turns out, none of them fit. Somehow during the pandemic, I managed to lose weight. I'm really not sure how, but now Jess' pants fit me. (Which, seeing as they hate wearing jeans means that I'm good on them for work). This kind of fucked me up for a while. In my family, I've always been the fat one. But now, I think I'm actually smaller than my sister. It's a snug fit, but I was able to pull on some size 20s. Which means that I could potentially shop at non-plus size retailers. I feel a little like a traitor to the body positivity movement, as deep down, I'm excited about it.
So, if anyone in the greater Baltimore area needs a fuckton of 26-28 short size jeans, hit me up.
Went to IKEA last night, as we needed lightbulbs for our IKEA lamps, and I really, really wanted some fucking meatballs. Ended up with way more than what we needed, but I am pleased with the haul. They had various kinds of Marabou chocolate, which made me fucking thrilled.
We decided that since we couldn't afford the Melting Pot, today we shall go to the movie theater. I plan to wear my mask the whole time, but I wanted to do something nice for Jess's birthday next week. We're going to go see Army of the Dead, which looks entertaining at the very least.
At some point, we have to squeeze in a trip to Walmart for groceries, as we are out of everything. Seriously, tonight we have meatballs, and that's about it.
I seem to have hit a bit of a wall with the Swedish lessons. I need to redo a bunch of the modules, as I don't think I've retained them well. It's a little frustrating, but not surprising.
Okay, time to put on pants and consider more coffee. Have an awesome Saturday, everyone!
