05.20.23 – A Lot More People Than I Anticipated.

Honestly, I was not sure what I was expecting this morning, but a lot of people awake was not it. I do my outside chores early in the morning, I go to stores when they just opened because I do not tolerate crowds well. So when I go out on Saturday mornings for these errands, I have these stops timed well. The first stop for me this morning was the grocery store next to my apartment complex. That was not bad. There were people, but not a lot to trigger my anxiety. I was out of there in less than 30 minutes. Next stop? Starbucks. That was quick because I did a mobile order and I just stopped there to pick the order up.

Next stop? Carwash. For timewise, let’s just say it was a few minutes after 8 AM. So the carwash place just opened. I drove to the location and holy shit. The line was so long that, it was about to encroach the main street. I was just baffled by that. Normally, that location was not that bad at this hour. So, I had no choice but to skip the carwash and go to the next stop, which was Costco. Yes, I complained in my head why there were a lot more people at the carwash place than I anticipated. I really did not think that a lot of people would be awake. It’s a Saturday for crying out loud. I might try again to go get a carwash tomorrow. Keyword: TRY. I was never a fan of going out if I don’t need to.

I got to Costco a lot earlier than planned. And it was expected. It was always crowded regardless of what time I go there. Anyway, I got some quinoa salad which I was excited about because for some reason I was craving it since the other day. And I was right, it was good and it was satisfying when I had some a few hours ago.

I did not do anything crazy today really. I attempted to trim some of Paco’s matted fur because his grooming appointment isn’t until next month. But he was too stubborn and won’t sit still for me. I got some trimmed but not as much as I wanted. Regardless, I did give him a quick bath since it was getting too hot here. He looked so sad while he was in the tub and looked at me with such betrayal in his beautiful hazel doggy eyes. Blow-drying him was tedious since this dog does not like sitting still. But that task was successful and he had some zoomies for a bit right after. And I did give him a treat.

I finished another webtoon today. And added some more to my list to read. I also planned to finish reading Lord of the Flies tonight. Keyword: PLANNED. I am not saying that it would happen. But I would read it for sure. I mean, I dislike abandoning a book after finally being able to focus on reading it.

No date night. Boyfriend decided to do a boys’ night. I decided to just chill in my roommate’s live stream while also listening to some reading vlogs on YouTube. I also watched Mean Girls because that movie is a classic. And because of Karen, I now want some Taco Bell.
