Monday: Dancing with a new friend in beginners :)
Tuesday: Went to see We Are X, a documentary about X Japan (my favouritest band in the whole world when I was 18/19 years old. See also: failed trip to Japan in 2008 to see their reunion concert. See also: Successful trip to Vancouver in 2010 to see their first North American tour. I'm not sure if there was a second one but they did play Madison Square Garden in New York in 2014). The theatre had an opening "act" for some reason (maybe because it's part of a music documentary series?) and it was so awful I would have rather have seen the terrible band that opened for them in 2010 again. They were a supremely boring folk band that I couldn't understand, and them and the documentary subject (Japanese heavy metal...) could not have been more different.
The documentary also brought up a LOT of FEELINGS for me related to writing. I wrote a long post about it but have hidden it from public viewing because I want to sit with the thoughts a bit longer before writing more, and hopefully somewhat coherently. But that band and many others were all I listened to exclusively for a number of years and were direct inspiration for a lot of my writing in the same time frame (basically up until the end of 2003). I went and found a bunch of those old stories on my external drive and read them and FEEEEELINGS Whoooaaaa whoaaa FEELINGS. I'm trying to decide what to do with them.
Wednesday: Reading day (see above)
Thursday: See previous post.
Friday: Supposed to be a game but I had migraine #4 and bailed. Not a lot of brains happening.
Saturday: Wedding! Congrats K&V!! It was nice to see V's first wife's family there, and we had a great time pre-drinking before the reception hehehehe.
Sunday: Turkey day! Cooking and eating WAY too much at Nicole's house. OMG I just remembered that we didn't even touch the pie that is now in my fridge. Dang, will have to eat that later.
Today: I did a glucose curve on my cat. I felt SO Bad for having to stab him with a needle multiple times but it needed to be done. I couldn't always find the vein in his ears and as a result poked him WAY more times than necessary my poor fuzzy baby. But he was so good through it all and I got the data sent to the vet. I also ripped some fabric, ironed it, stitched the side seams for a petticoat for the sack that will be properly balanced for hoops, and pressed up the hem. I also knitted the last 6 garter ribs on my shawl before the next lace section, watched a lot of Netflix (The Good Place, which was great, more Voyager, which had one really great pair of eps, and then spent about 40 minutes watching The Last Jedi trailer on repeat. EEEEEE!!!)
Tomorrow: Tea with friends!
