I visited Victoria for the first time last month, it was beautiful! Can’t wait to come back and see more of the Island.

Get you a sister that will surprise you with a trip to a contemporary artspace with a rideable nudibranch 🥰 fun fact, I learned that nudibranch rhymes with “tank,” who knew? Not I!

Spouse works in mental health and can only take so much intense media at a time, so I have to ration them out… maybe now I’ll finally get to catch up on Severance!

Tonight is the night we finally finish Twin Peaks: The Return and also our last night of Paramount+

(We have a Friday night tradition of 1 TP ep followed by the corresponding Detective and the Log Lady podcast ep, it’s been delightful)

I regularly have a dream where I discover a door in my apartment that I’d never noticed before and it turns out my place is like 5x bigger than I thought.

Some cats are shoe perverts, that’s just how they’re built.

so my spouse is part of a weirdly intense but mostly benign men's workout group that meets at like, 5:30am outside every day, even in winter. they do a lot of burpees and lugging cinder blocks up hills and stuff.
they take turns leading the workouts and tomorrow is his turn. I asked what he was planning. he handed me a sheet of William Carlos William poems from a large stack he'd printed.
I said "what" and he explained, helpfully, "it's a William Carlos William themed workout." I asked what inspired it and he said "l've been planning this for months."

it was a smash hit.
a dozen guys showed up (more than usual). spouse brought a red wheelbarrow and they took turns bringing cinder blocks up the hill with it. then they broke up in teams and did a relay with an "icebox" (cooler filled with 40lbs of ice). at the end he opened the cooler to reveal it was full of beach plum lacroix and all the guys cheered. they drank sparkling water as he read 'approach of winter' out loud.
he was home by 6:30am.
