zesty_pintoHeeey it's been a week and I've been busy. I know, surprising right?
Hope everyone enjoyed the VD, be it with someone, yourself, or that cheap, cheap candy.
I say this as someone that spent that day in a pancake house where everything was covered in strawberries or cotton candy: meh. Save your money. Pancakes from there are always good though, just not impressed at paying the extra for a seasonal.
Wow, typing that made me feel like a boomer.
So I will say that outside of work, which has been my one obsession, the trips have been remarkably light. Weather's still been too cold. We did try to visit Sandy Hook and it was nice in that everything was covered in snow and ice and the water was nothing but a blank desert as far as the eye could see, but wildlife was at a low. At least the wind wasn't trying to kill us this time though.
Also visited the Bronx Zoo and some of the animals were more active. The tigers did their thing around all the white snow, while the snow leopards were practically housecats, pacing around the entrance to their shelters that is only opened around closing and making pathetic mewling to go back inside while scratching the door. It was hilarious to imagine a wild beast behaving like anyone's longhair tabby but here we are.
Also writing this post reminded me to start uploading my card and charge a battery which were both neglected.
Dryness is still a constant annoyance. My skin is flaking off all over the place and itches like crazy.
My computer froze while writing this and I'm debating whether it was because of Chrome or some other annoyance. It's been running warmer than usual and given how prices are, I would like to avoid this completely. Fun!
Oh, and I'm sick. Again. A new infection? Maybe covid swiss cheesed my immunity. I shouldn't be too surprised though.
Tomorrow promises to be a lot of snow, so going to see what we can see. Sandy Hook again? Seal time looks promising again. I'll power through the sickness, just going to do it with a mask on.
