Un petit peu de tout. 35F

The way I blend seamlessly into the poster is cracking me up.

Another day of being forced to get out of bed and be social by the well-meaning people in my life.

I hate it and resent it. Then the guilt hits.

Driving to work this morning and listening to A Whole New World . I got so wrapped up in Jasmine's part that I missed an exit🤣

When she said

Unbelievable sights

Indescribable feeling

Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling

Through an endless diamond sky

At firstvI thought it was lint, but it is most definitely mealy bugs.

I've had this Hoya Carnosa Compacta for almost a year. I know this type of Hoya is prone to critters. While it looked very dehydrated why I first got it, I never noticed pests before.

I sprayed it with Isopropyl Alcohol and removed the three bugs I visually detected. Now, quarantine!

There is nothing more annoying than receiving one of those.

Whether it is coming from my personal phone, work phone or any messaging tool, they never fail to make me roll my eyes.

And without fail, I will take hours (or DAYS even) before I reply back. Because if you're wasting my time, I shall waste yours as well.

LOTR was an immense part of my childhood.

This was my very first time rewatching the trilogy in my adult life. I honestly was dreading it...After more than 10 years, after growing up, having life slap me in the face, after having a few hopes and dreams crushed, after losing friends, after disappointing myself and others; could this trilogy hold up in quality?

The resounding answer is YES. And no trilogy will EVER compare for me. The 683 minutes journey was familiar, although I was seeing it through my disillusioned adult eyes. Somehow, that made everything more vivid.

Nothing will ever compare. It is just an amazing, very human experience.
