What Are You Happy About Today?

Not a lot of stuff today because it was pretty uneventful.
  • Had a good sleep.
  • It was the third day running in pleasant sunny weather and got a chance to be soaked in the light again!
  • I started and finished another piece for my art project. I just wanna say my heart is getting cuddled in cuteness right now. 🥺
 
I was exploring Vegas today and found ended up finding some interesting stuff. I only purchased two energy drinks so far. I don’t plan on drinking them. The Bakugo one is tempting, though, because orange is my favorite flavor. The only problem is, I’m unsure if that’s what flavor it is, though.

I also went to a weird antique shop and found this. It’s a real person’s skeleton and it’s expensive as heck. I thought some of the members here might be intrigued!

I’m currently eating Popeye’s for a night snack and will probably head downstairs for some casino slots. I got some spicy chicken tenders with hot sauce and drinking some Dr. Pepper!
 
- went shopping today to pick up some last minute items for my trip, so i got some dewy makeup setting spray, tinted moisturizer, cleansing wipes, some new wide leg jeans, and a book (Berlin Alexanderplatz by Alfred Döblin, very fitting since I'm going to Berlin 😅 ) I have a habit where if I'm going for a trip I bring along a classic book to read that takes place in the area I'm visiting

- my mum did me a huge favour and photocopied my passport + printed out my COVID travel documents at her work

- finished Nana last night, it's quickly become one of my fav anime of all time 🥰
 
Sat-Mon:
  • Saturday I spent hours sat in my parents garden reading His Majesty's Dragon by Naomi Novik. I originally read it ~16 years ago as a teenager, and I didn't expect it to live up to my memory, but I'm really enjoying it! In the evening we ate steak and sat around the fire pit drinking red wine.
  • I met some of my partner's closest friends last night. We went to see a live performance in the park and then went to a bar for drinks. Turns out they like me and they were really glad to see that I'm making her happy.
  • This morning my girlfriend treated me to pancakes at a café for breakfast, then we spent the afternoon sat in the park. 🖤
 
A lot of things were resolved today for me, which surprised me and made me very happy. I also have been getting better sleep and got a lot of work done today. Just reminds me that I'm too quick to give up on things sometimes when things go south. I need to do better with that. All in all a great start to the week. :giggle: 💚
 
I spoke to my aunt about my frustration with my doctor's appointment and she understands where I'm coming from. Told me to get a new doctor because she thinks I'm doing great treating myself well and that Doctor in her quote "didn't know any better and jumped to conclusions." Even though I'm still feel mad about that appointment at least talking to my aunt made me feel better.
 
Today I'm happy because:

- I slept pretty deeply last night.
- The weather was nice and warm again.
- My daylilies are blooming in the front yard.
- My husband mowed the grass and cut back a lot of vines and low hanging branches so the yard looks so much better.
- I had a rough day at work, but my husband was very sweet to me.
- The Sandman trailer dropped today and it looks soooo good!
- I had a Summer Strawberry Salad from Wendy's for dinner. I've been craving one for a while now, so I'm glad they brought it back.
- I had an Oreo Cone for dessert. Ice cream always makes everything better.
 
Yesterday:
I got to progress the story some more in DQVIII! I also obtained the Ultimate Key and was able to collect a ton of treasure.
Also played Style Savvy: Styling Star for a bit! I've been messing around with the design feature some more. I wish there were more customization options and more colors (and that some of the available colors weren't so bright that they practically glow), but I've still made some neat stuff with it, I think!

Today:
We were able to rescue and release a poor little skink that had gotten into the house and was being bullied by my tuxedo cat—albeit minus its tail, which it had already dropped. Can't tell you how many lizard rescues we've performed around here over the years. ^^;
 
I have sensitive skin so real tattoos are out of the question for me, so a fake tattoo is the next best thing. It lasts for five weeks and I think the girl did a very nice job. This picture was right by after it was drawn. I’ll take another picture tomorrow for the finished product.

I was actually going to get my favorite person’s nickname for me in her handwriting, but I don’t think my crush would’ve been too happy about that, lol. I ultimately decided on the above and wanted to show it off.

I was able to watch the Colorado Avalanche play the Edmonton Oilers today and advance to the Cup Final. I’m currently rooting for the Lightning of the remaining teams.
I gambled a bit last night and tonight, and I was only harassed twice for the ID, lol. I think I prefer the ones that have the “Over 21” stamp so I can just raise my fist, lol. They don’t do that in Vegas, though.

Harass is a harsh word, I know, but I’m sick of being mistaken for a kid, lol.
