not ordering delivery anything either
went out for lunch tuesday, a bar thursday, both trips were “welp, last time I’m doing this for a while”
something to look forward to
home office setup (a murphy bed closet, lol) is solid, will be doing a lot of cooking and baking
last night: last dinner friends

Nice pink’n’ blue sunset y’all
It’s an old meme but it checks out
The u.s. is gonna show its libertarian ass all year and boomers gonna keep saying “idk the media hypes everything so much idk” while consuming said media and no other from the third or fourth house they’ve leveled up to
The 49 muni is doing so many burnouts pulling away on wet streets after the first rain in over a month i’m worried some yummy is gonna call the cops and report a sideshow. i’m absolutely not fixing that spellcheck.
