| My Favorite Mandrill (Taken 1.21.22) |
I'm gonna keep it short because I already got that post in this morning. After doing my post and the brief listings, Nova was home early because of finals so she and I went to the San Diego Zoo while Darren rested since he's working late tonight at the Casbah for Emo Nite. It was such a pretty day and while more crowded than Thursday, was still a pretty chill as far as crowds go, and less mommy militia stroller army to dodge. We stayed till closing, picked up some fries and wings from Canada Steak Burger and came home to yummy burgers that Darren cooked up. Now he's working and Nova and I are watching The Hate U Give because her class is reading it at school. Of course she read ahead and finished it -- I would never let her watch the movie before finishing an assigned book. Buuut...it's super intense so I'm gonna cut out. Not sure when I'll get to the rest of my listings but I'll do my best to have them in time for Saturday night. I found out today that Son Volt has canceled for Sunday because members of their touring party tested positive and while that really sucks, I'm also glad I don't have to put myself in a crowd again before I'm ready again.
Stay safe out there.
