jhameiaYesterday I woke up at 5am, got to swim for an hour. Got home as Yoshi was finishing her breakfast, and she was like "where did you go?" So I explained to her why I hate sharing lanes, which she got a huge kick out of.
Work was interesting. Tax season is upon us, and our distributor changed accounting systems, so my boss had me take a closer look at the Client Statements, and compare to the data reports that we can download. The data is supposed to let us drill down to individual purchases, but honestly all we want are totals, which means navigating filters and spreadsheets with more columns than we care about. So the task was to find the totals in the datasets that would match the Client Statements. And, uh, most of the numbers did not match. It turns out I get weirdly hyperfocused on these things, and I liked it because detail-oriented stuff like that is my jam, even though I actually hate numbers with a passion.
After work, I headed to Curry Up Now for dinner with Maricar and Maurisa, and we then went to Dandelion for dessert. Between the three of us we shared a tiramisu, a smore, and a drinking chocolate, which is good because while I love the drinking chocolate, I can't have it by myself without taking so long it's cold by the time I get to the bottom.
I was really sneezy when I got home though. I rested, then tried on the Unicorn Glitter Peel-Off Mask.
Peeling off masks is an ordeal and a half! I GUESS my skin felt nice afterwards, but I'm not sure if that's because it actually improved, or it felt nice to not feel it in pain from pulling off the mask?
Anyway, I woke up this morning at 5, refused to wake up until 8.30, then stayed in bed until 10, and I think my body hates that because I got up to a face full of hives. Could be the sleeping in. Could be the mask! Could even be the fact that I might be sick, since I felt low-key cruddy and tired, and sometimes instead of having sniffles and a fever I just get ugly. I don't know! Either way I started de-cluttering my desk, swept the floor of my bedroom, and began working on some freelance work.
So yeah. Jia Ling invited me out to Oakland First Friday, so I thought I'd nap and see if I felt better, but nope. So I ate nachos and drank some hot chocolate and am still working on editing instead.
But tomorrow Elizabeth's invited me to her ad hoc birthday party, dim sum at what seems like everybody's favourite dim sum place in downtown Oakland. I'm hoping that Jia Ling and I can get together on Sunday to discuss ideas for a comics project together, too.
