Did surprisingly well at bar trivia. I knew ernest hemmingway wrote death in the afternoon! like right away too. kinda major.
Went on a run in TGP today and I saw a group of like actually 150 people running together. All different ages and general vibe. I chickened out on asking what they were doing.
I am reading about cells and enjoying it.
Making my valiant return to the flounderverse for the winter. I graduated and shut my laptop for 3 months. its good to be back, although I fear my personal computer (PC) may have succumb to a virus.
I am ready for the winter. can't believe it. I think I might get really sad this winter, but not in a way I am dreading. Decided that probably mid november I am going to screen eternal sunshine of the spotless mind and officially inaugurate sad season.
Plus you hate to say it but a winter cigarette has something to it.
I AM dreading November. Anyone going anywhere fun/interesting to hang out over Thanksgiving? Don't really want to be in VA or STL
Good morning flounderverse :)
This past weekend was quite literally off the freaking chain.
I had a kick ass time at beerstravaganza #3 on Friday night. We laughed, we cried, we drank, we smoked, we held eachother nice and close.
Saturday morning was a kind of hell previously unknown to me. I puked out of my car window while I was driving past young families with strollers enjoying their morning at TGP. Fortunately, I was eventually revived by a QT sausage egg and cheese crossaint and an icy cold diet coke.
Then me and @mothbaby headed to Cherokee for Cinco de Mayo. We were working with the South City Harm Reduction collective to hand out Narcan and Fentanyl test strips. We straight up ROCKED it. We handed out probably like 300(ish?) boxes of narcan. then we ate some delicious corn and smoked some funky weed. i love @mothbaby.
Then I ate a bunch of chinese food alone in my apartment, which can be so powerful in its own way.
Sunday I set out to lay in a creek. Me and @eliza journeyed south to St. Francois state park and enjoyed a truly gorgeous hike. There was an astounding lack of trash and the stream was spring fed. I wasable to lay down and splash around to my hearts desire.
All in all, this weekend smelt like sunscreen, beer, bug spray, and ganj. Its summer time! In St Louis! and I love it! and all of you!
goooooooddddd mmorrniINNGnnGG fLouUUNNDDEeeRRRVERSE!
Happy Tuesday! I am being a busy little bee this week, but all good stuff.
I really enjoyed my high performance computing class yesterday. If anyone wants to talk about LLMs, hit my line! I have many concerns. Every time I leave that class I just have thoughts thoughts thoughts. Feels good to get my brain blood pumping.
Tonight i am seeing LIZZO with my love, my life, my Eliza. I dont have a cool outfit planned but Lizzo will look hot enough for the both of us I am sure.
This weekend I am John Denvering (going home to Virginia). It is my mama's birthday and I am excited to hang out with her and Luberry.
I very much relate to @idi's most recent journal post. I, too, have a lovely little life that i can't seem to fully relax into. Everyday when I try and have my "chill out" time, i am worried that I forgot something at work or I am supposed to be at a meeting or what if my landlord is mad at me or did i remember to turn off my curling iron or what if my friends are lying to me or what if i wake up tomorrow and there is no more money in my bank account. We are, however, getting better. I think it is one of the perils/joys of living alone. Sometimes its easy (especially when its warm out at night and you live by the park) and sometimes it is hard, but I think I am making real progress towards enjoying my life.
Howdy howdy howdy. This weekend has been a delight. Show @ The Splash Pad (TM) on Friday was as fun as always. I love being silly goofy let the good times roll with my friends.
Saturday me and @princess-jesus and @unclealtoid went and looked at a bunch of apartments and generally beep booped around the city.
I got a approved for the apartment I applied for so I am very hashtag exiteD!
Saturday night I went bowling in the loop. i had not been there is a while-- it was, for lack of a better term, hoppin! That was fun fun lovely lovely.
now it is sunday and I have just returned from the Symphony. The symphony is so good and you should all check it out. The crowd is kinda full of a bunch of mean old bats, but the music was good.
Kiss kiss love u
Time to self disclose via Flounder diary.
Yesterday I suffered a mortification that I KNOW i will be thinking about late night for the foreseeable future. I told a classmate that I always have to stop myself from laughing in our professor face during class and of course he was standing DIRECTLY behind me. But I enjoy his class and he is funny and makes me laugh! but it sounded so mean :/ Dr. Mudigonda if you're reading this I love you.
Last night the cops knocked on my door (neighbors fighting again). I opened it at like 10 pm and then immediately was like, why would i do that?? But ultimately i am chismosa and need to know what is going on.
My neighbor was really strung out (#fail) and also opened the door (#fail). She was clearly high (so was I, but not like *that*) and the cops deduced that she was the one they were looking for.
The cop was super hot also. He looked like Idris Elba with a beard. He looked like he would smell really good. Unfortunately the wellness check from Mr. SexyCopMan did not resolve the issue at all (SHOCKER!) but at least they were respectful about their complete ineffectiveness.
My new passive resistance to the constant screaming is to add my own screaming to the mix. I hope my neighbors like Fleetwood Mac!
