I guess there was a Joseon king who'd host a partay each time he finished a book, which included talking about the book and a lot of heavy drinking.

Freaking myself out by searching for worst case scenarios on the Internet right before bed time because why not.

Both water and the Internet is out at home today for some reason and it's basically like the bronze age in here.

JCrew blazers used to be 100% wool just a few years ago but now they're all polyester blends???

I now fully understand why Chinese food is always accompanied by jasmine tea, I could literally FEEL my food digesting in my stomach.

I just learned that there are figure drawing sessions near me and I signed up. Thanks, Artist Way for forcing me to go on Artist Dates.

If there is one thing that ChatGPT is actually really useful for (for my practical day-to-day) is rewording stuff I write for my performance review to sound more corporatese. (Though even that I do have to revise because I can't stand the cringe)

You know when you were super excited about a fragrance because of the name and you try it but it smells nothing like you expected and that's how you know other people experience the same things differently than you?

Why do I even sign up for networking events in the city it's just way too far at the end of the day.

Betty has finally learned how to meow like a cat, rather than just squeak.

Google Photos show me photos from a year ago, which usually are photos of the Matissu, and it's just shocking to me how healthy and lively she looked early last year. I really had no idea she was going to die a few months later. I wasn't given a heads up to prepare myself at all.

I added a new, VERY EXPENSIVE skincare item into my morning routine and I hope it performs miracles.

Not to generalize but I feel like the most unhinged conversations I've ever been forced upon were with LA Uber/Lyft drivers.

I guess I shouldn't compare the closeness I had with a cat I've bonded with for 14 years vs one that I haven't even had for a year.

Matissu used to be a velcro kitty but she always acted like she was just coincidentally in the same room as me, and not on purpose. Betty is a velcro kitty that always makes it be known that she's here because I'm here and I should stop moving around so much.

COVID is definitely different because with Paxlovid I feel almost 100% now and in any other circumstance I think I'd been like okay, I'm back to work but last night I noticed my Fitbit would show an elevated heart rate when I do something strenuous like... Sit up to read a book.

The "problem" with working from home I guess is that this bar is lower than when one has to go to an office to work.
