07.19.23 – Rough Week. Yeah, One of Those.

I am not having a good week. I’ve been feeling really off lately. What I mean to say is that I have been feeling sick since Monday. On top of that, I just have no motivation whatsoever. My anxiety is also over the place. I’m feeling restless, but also I don’t want to move. So yeah, what a combo. I think the only thing silver lining for me right now is the fact that I don’t have hives or welts yet. Which normally would show if I’m having a really bad mental breakdown. I will take that as a win for now.

I’ve been reading a lot, which is good. I have not been able to read a book lately. So anything that would put me in the mood to actually read, I am all for it. I finished a novel the other day. And I am halfway done with this novel that I am reading. I am currently reading the 3rd and last book in a romance series. So if I finish reading this one, that would check my “finish a series” reading goal for this year.

I also started reading Lolita the other day. This book has been on my TBR for years. I just never had the energy to pick it up. Now why would I pick up this book considering the setting and the theme? The answer is simple. I’m interested. I’ve seen a lot of YouTube videos regarding this book. So I want to see for myself. Apparently, there were a lot of interpretations of this book and honestly, I would like to see why there were people who thought that the narrator was the victim in this.

I also started rewatching How I Met Your Mother. I mean, 30 min shows are my jam. This is contradictory since I love watching long-form YouTube videos. I prefer my YT video essays that range from over an hour to almost six hours. But for produced shows, over 30 minutes is an overkill for me.

Anyway, no big plans for me today. Just stay in bed and read. Sure chores will always be there, but for the most part, I won’t be doing anything.
