Planner update: I bought a plotter (bible sized) and it’s been a near constant companion of mine. I guess it’s a bullet journal with a leather cover. Shiranami Blue.

I scheduled a vaccination appointment for tomorrow. Probably the most responsible action I make regarding my health all year.

Oh no it’s planner season 🖊️

I have been a hobonichi user for five years, which means I buy some expensive diminutive japanese diaries with excellent intentions but generally I do not fill them with information. I do this because I like the covers. I am currently indecisive which to choose next.

Here is the end result of my participation in the Stationery Store Passport 🖊️ 8 of 11 shops around Los Angeles and a collection of cards, stickers, and paper products which I probably didn’t need… I hear the handsome letterpress passport was made by Shorthand in Highland Park.

Stationery Store Day 🖊️

More than just celebrating stores that are stationary, this weekend Los Angeles area stationery stores have a fun passport where people could get stamps from 11 shops. Yesterday I went to five, many of which I had never visited before!

A Man Without Love - Englebert Humperdinck 🎶

There was a song stuck in my head. Couldn’t place it and the only clue was “Everyday I wake up” … yeah, it was the song A Man Without Love featured in the Marvel Disney+ series Moon Knight. I did not wake up feeling rested today…

The La Colombe Nitro Cold Brew with Lemon is a delightful little weekend treat when I want a bright small dose of coffee with a bit of sweetness. I had never considered mixing lemon with my coffee but it pairs well. During the work week I consume a much larger amount of caffeine… 😇 ☕️

Joy Ride 🍿

A raunchy comedy that made me cry. The only asians in a small community go on a business trip and discover their friendships. ★★★★★

** Wonka ** official trailer 🍿

Finally a trailer of the film that Paul King made instead of Paddington 3 and I’m sure it will be enjoyed by some. Enjoyed the bit with Hugh Grant.

The Flash 🍿

I watched The Flash this evening and it was mostly good. Some parts of it felt awkward funny, and I felt sorry for the poor therapy dog. Anyways, if DC could stop making movies obsessed with mother related trauma it’s probably for the best. ★★★★☆
