08.18.22 – When the Lazy-itis Hits Hard

Damn, it’s been eight days. I’ve been lazy…I think. Or at least I’m going with that. I could pretend and say that I just want to collect my thoughts, but no. All I’ve been thinking about lately is fried chicken. And you know, ice cream. It has been too hot again recently and I really do feel like anything than not doing anything is work.

Anyway, just minor updates: I went to a concert last Saturday, OPM Summer Fest US Tour 2022. It featured my favorite artists growing up – IntroVoys, True Faith, Gloc-9, and Rivermaya. Did I have fun? Yes. I will make a separate entry about it. It deserves its own entry. I still have to go through the photos I took. 

My hun and I finished Miira no Kaikata (How to Keep a Mummy). And we loved it. We’ve been into feel-good anime lately. We just started watching Spy*Family. As in the title, it’s a spy anime, but with some comedy, and adorable-ness sprinkled in it. We were trying to find something similar to Miira no Kaikata but the suggestions were less than interesting. We’ve had our eyes on Spy*Family so we just said, what the hell.

I’ve been also making good progress on Howl’s Moving Castle. And all I can say is, Howl is a very unlikeable character. I am halfway through the book and I’m still not finding any redeeming qualities. I won’t lie though that I still have movie Howl in my head and I can’t keep comparing him to book Howl. And they’re just different. I had a very short moment where I felt the pull of book Howl – he was an academic, got a doctorate, and studied charms and spells for his thesis. And that lasted about two seconds. Because when it all comes down to it, I really think he’s horrible and a pig. I did enjoy that chapter when I was introduced to his niece. I wanted to learn more about his background and seeing how he was with his niece made me smile for a while. And his name is Howell Jenkins. I mean I didn’t think that Howl was his real name but Howell…I guess it made sense.

God, it’s so hot in my apartment right now. I cannot even think straight. But then again I have a reading light that is actually shining on me right now since I was reading. I just decided to take a break because I wanted to write something before I got lazy again. Remember, typing is too much work right now. 

I also had a couple of movies played while I was reading. Drive Me Crazy, Saved, and now, The Lost City. All these movies I’ve watched multiple times already. But I do like having background noise. I have issues focusing when it’s too quiet. I’ve always been this way, and I don’t think I’ll ever change. 

Anyway, I think this is it for today. Hopefully, I get to keep this up again. Well, I just need to not be too lazy.
