And then the weekend went away.
I am counting down the days til 4th of July, when I will have a real, solid vacation: 5 days off work, oh, how glorious you will be.

There’s carne al pastor in my crockpot; it’s been in for about an hour, and it’s starting to make my house smell like food. At some point I’m going to fire up the rice cooker, and slice some bell pepper, and put the rest of my groceries in the fridge. I have noms for the week, including both real food and snacky food, and I am trying my damnedest to not spend money because oh god, end of April/beginning of May is going to suck, between the double-sized student loan payment and the three-weeks-between-pay periods.

Iron Man 3 and Star Trek 2 are both coming out soon! I am excite, but for my own good (id est, keeping stress down and my mental health in a shape resembling “functional”), I am not going to be engaging critically with the source, or in the fandom. (This blanket non-engagement applies equally to all of the things I love.)
Additionally, I’ve come to the conclusion that people who identify as “angry”, “extremist”, and/or “radical” are as a rule not safe for me to be around, and so I’m trying my best to stay out of spaces they control and to not engage with them.

I miss writing. I think I need a coffee table to facilitate writing more.
