...sometimes a thought bubbles to the top of my brain that I feel I should share with the world...
Things I Learned Over The Long Weekend
- The Hamilton soundtrack is not good gardening music. The weeding will be brought to a halt by abject weeping rather than overexertion and/or being out of weeds.
- haha you're never out of weeds
- I was actually out of room in the yard waste bin so I guess I did an okay job?
- Elle King is much better gardening music than the Hamilton soundtrack. The only music-related interruption was when I had to stop gardening in order to rock out to "America's Sweetheart".
- That was a bit of a surprise because I didn't like that song the first couple times I heard it.
- The Hamilton soundtrack is not good driving music. Abject weeping is not a safe condition to drive in.
- The super-cheap nail polish I picked up is surprisingly durable.
- I can paint my nails a color that isn't in the pink-to-purple range and the world won't end
- By sheer coincidence the blue nail polish I picked up precisely matches my "...because subtext" shirt.
- Typing is harder on nail polish than gardening is.
- The Pokémon Go distance tracker shorts you about 15% even at walking speed along a straight-line path.
- Walking 4.5 km when you'd intended to walk 4 is an unpleasant surprise.
- Walking 4.5 km in the afternoon when you'd spent an hour gardening in the morning is not a good idea anyways.
- My walking speed is slower than I remember it being. Gotta fix that.
- Also need to build stamina back up to the point where I can walk 5 km without needing to collapse afterwards.
- ...which is actually going to be like 5.8 km because fk the Pokémon Go distance tracker.
- Hockey has something approximating formal rules for fights on the ice.
- ...many other random things related to the official rules of hockey
- ...which is not enough to let me write a fictional hockey game being played dammit.
