Nothing here but my musings about daily life, books, anime, and food.
Oh god. I was so bored today. Not going to lie, with my job right now, working from home is not possible. It’s mind-numbingly boring. Normally, if I’m onsite, I would be in the lab helping with samples a little bit and do office work either in the afternoon. My mornings are always booked for meetings so I do admin stuff in the afternoon. But I finished my admin too early in the morning, and since I can’t really help physically push samples, I was stuck helping with orders remotely. It does not really do much, to be honest.
Anyway, work is done now, and I am just waiting for a package to get delivered. I hate that there is so minimal information on where your package is. I don’t get why until now, you are not able to see where your package is on the map. It’s so stupid.
Anyway, I have no plans tonight. Just relax. I need to see if my friend to watch some more movies. But that is up in the air. We shall see. I currently have Bob’s Burgers playing in the background. I would read but I’m not in the mood to read right now. Bad, I know. But honestly, I just want to curl in bed and do nothing.
I feel so sleepy. This workday really took a toll on my brain. My neurons deteriorated and want to recharge. OR it might be because I’m PMS-ing. Who knows. I also want some Mexican food. Some Al Pastor burrito or something. Or maybe buffalo chicken wings. Ugghhh. And soda. Yeah. Great.
Working from home is a dream. Yeah, I wish I can do this every day. But after tomorrow, I’m back onsite. Not planning on rehashing my workday. I just want to share that I prefer working from home.
I meant to post yesterday, but I passed out – no surprise there. But my love and I watched an episode of Invader Zim and the movie The Switch. I still cannot believe how dark Invader Zim was. There were episodes that went there and all I could think of was this marketed to kids…That show was dark. And I like it.
The Switch was okay. I mean I enjoyed it, I think Sebastian was adorable in that movie. And sure, he might have issues fitting in with “regular” kids, but then again, I like characters that do not fit the mold. I also like Jason Bateman’s character, again, a little bit rough around the edges but I appreciate having a leading man who was not the typical prince. My hun did not consider it a rom-com. I did.
I was not able to hang out with him today. I ended up hanging out with a friend. And just watched some stuff on Paramount+. We watched The Lost City. Yes, I watched it again, and I still enjoyed it. Then we watched this skit special called Goatface: A Comedy Special. And I finally watched Office Space.
Goatface was funny. No surprise there. We saw Hasan Minhaj on the thumbnail, and we were like, yeah we should watch this. Some of their skits were dark and it was funny. They went there, there were very bold, and we appreciated it. From the opening skit to the Gun of the Year award skit, yeah… DARK.
Also, I cannot believe that I never watched Office Space. Yeah, that movie hits. I mean the fact that people just work to work and most people do not really enjoy what they do. The first scene of him looking at his watch and seeing that it was only Monday – yeah that hit hard. I understand why this movie became such a cult classic. It was so real and relatable. People were not being motivated and challenged enough. And true, why would you work hard when you do not really get anything out of it. No monetary gain. Nothing. So yeah, people will only give just enough to get the job done.
I think my hun is working a double tomorrow. So I will get to hang out with him on Saturday. Tomorrow, planning on watching some more movies with a friend. We’re planning maybe Southpark movies. Or Mean Girls. We’ll see, depends on tomorrow’s mood.
I decided not to go to work. Aside from the fact that maintenance needed to fix something in the apartment this morning, I was just lazy. So when the apartment office called me yesterday to say that maintenance will stop over this morning, I just went for it, why would I let an opportunity not be at work pass?
So…my hun and I decided to hang out early. I asked him if we could watch this anime called Library Wars. I like it. What’s not to like? It’s about protecting books from censorship, it has a military feel to it, and it has action. Again, what’s not to like? Not to mention the artwork is definitely good. I mean sure it’s anime, but the artwork is different compared to regular anime we are used to watching. I was worried about suggesting the anime to my love, to be honest. But he seems to be enjoying it. So that was nice. I get to enjoy this anime with hun instead of me watching it alone.
We also watched John Wick 2. It was good. I mean, I preferred the first installment over this one but that is okay. I am not saying that the second one was awful, I just liked the first one better. I personally feel like the rule that John Wick broke at the end of the movie was just done so that a third installment can be made. Aside from that, I pretty much enjoyed the movie, I mean it’s freaking Keanu Reeves.
I’m going to try and read today. I read 50 pages last night, so I am hoping to do that again. I mean, I have nothing planned at this point anymore since my hun will be hanging out with the boys until he goes to work later.
I also added two new pages on the website – Foodie and Books. To help at least navigate the blogs.
I am not a fan of meetings in general, but what’s worse? Back-to-back meetings when I do not even have the time to do a bio break. Yeah, no thank you. But this company just likes to do back-to-back meetings. It gets annoying to be honest. Anyway, moving on.
Got to hang out with my love today after work. We caught up first since we did not hang out yesterday. We ended up just watching a movie after – The Lost City. We enjoyed it. Sure there were some cheesy parts, but I am not complaining – I love the cheese. Daniel Radcliffe did really well with his character, Fairfax. Of course, Brad Pitt was also in the movie – so gorgeous. The only thing that I wish is that they should not have dumbed down Channing Tatum’s character. I feel like it was not needed for the movie, to be honest.
I am going to try and read tonight. I tried reading yesterday while my hun was hanging out with his friends, but I could not focus. Three sentences in and my attention wandered – reading was a no-go yesterday. So I will try tonight, see if my attention does not waver.
I mean, by the title alone, you can already tell how my day went. Granted, I was still productive and did what I planned to do which is good. But really the rest of the morning was spent in bed. With my dog. I also made some carne asada fries at home. I really need to a lot more cooking at home. It’s just cheaper.
Date night was good! I really enjoyed the two movies we watched.
First movie was Tropic Thunder. I have not seen this movie in years. My hun said he wanted to watch a bad comedy and this movie was suggested. But a certain word was used in that movie that I have not heard in years, and it made me uncomfortable just a little bit. The movie made me laugh. And honestly, that movie would not fly anymore. A lot of people do not understand satirical comedy nowadays and a lot more sensitivities now too.
Second movie was Sonic the Hedgehog 2. Ah, we really enjoyed this movie. Tails is just so cute, Knuckles is just broody and naive, and Sonic is just full of energy! I love it. My hun nerded out a little bit – by that, I mean a lot – when something happened to Sonic, and when he saw the end credit scene. My love is just too adorable when he’s nerding out.
We also got to squeeze in an episode of House. And honestly, I’m getting tired of this Tritter arc. I really have issues with story arcs that is not needed! I just cannot. And yes, I debated of skipping the episodes, but at where we are at right now episode-wise, we will be missing a lot. My love said that Tritter arc has 16 more episodes to go. And I was like damn it! There is just no way we will be skipping 16 episodes! We will be missing a lot! I hate it. I hate it.
Tomorrow, we have a movie lined up – The Lost City with Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum. We watched the trailer earlier and it seemed interesting. I’m pretty sure we would enjoy that movie. But then again, a Sandra Bullock movie is always good.
Same as yesterday, I do not feel like recounting my moments at work again today. It was the same old thing. Meetings and samples. And audits. So exactly – same BS.
Chris and I found a good Thai food restaurant close to where we work. And it was some good food. We wanted to try that place for a while now but for some reason when we try to go there it’s always closed. So when we saw that it was today for lunch, we grabbed the chance. And it was worth it.
I am drinking coffee right now. I am also doing laundry. I have every plan to read tonight and make a dent on A Dirty Job. I would have loved to hang out with my hun but he is working today – a double shift I might add. So tonight is me time. And I just want to relax and do some chores so I would not have to do a lot of chores over the weekend. Just cooking and the regular washing of the dishes.
I am also having some romcoms play in the background. Cause you know, why not?
Tomorrow’s plan? Hang out with my love. We are planning on playing some video games – maybe some It Takes Two or some Stardew Valley. Maybe watch some House episodes and some anime. We’ll see. But definitely playing some video games.
