I may be slightly hooked on Manga

 I, yet again, have no idea how it happened. One minute I was watching the anime series, The Yakuza's Guide to Babysitting and, before I know it, I've read all the published manga. Then, I did the same with Spy x Family (which is an awesome series that you should totally see).

I just made an account with a site that lets you read manga for free. I think I might be here a while. I got a lot of reading ahead of me. I saved a bunch of series that I wanted to read.

Blackpink's "Pink Venom"!

 I honestly don't know when I became a K-pop fan. I think it may have started with Blackpink and Lady Gaga's "Sour Candy" or BTS's "Dynamite". Either way, I'm a fan and my sibs are quietly supportive. They may be scared I will try to make them like it by forced immersion. I learned my lesson with Hamilton.

Any way, Blackpink has released their new comeback called " Pink Venom". It's a funky, beautifully fierce nod to the artists and music that shaped them. You can't help but bop to it and imagine yourself as a take-no-prisoners Runway model who will always slay. Or maybe that was just my daydream?

So sore!!!

 Yesterday, I walked about half a mike to our local pharmacy to by teething tablets. My wisdom teeth were making me feel like gnawing on people. While there I picked up some things that we needed at home and carried them back. Now, my body is sore and I feel like sleep is always an option. Plus, my gum are itching me again.

Why do they call them wisdom teeth anyway? All they do is bring pain and act as a food trap. I need to take some teething tablets. That spoon handle is looking mighty fine.

So, Am I the weird one?

 Earlier today I was reading something and it made me think. The author was talking about how hard the COVID-19 lockdown was on him and his wife.  It suddenly dawned on me that as far as interacting with strangers outside my home, lockdown didn't bother me. 

On a normal day, I mainly interact with my family, neighbors, and their pets. Going to the store was the biggest highlight of my week. One could say that my pre-COVID life was just prep for the actual COVID lockdown. The only things that truly made it real were the shortages, the constant wipe downs of packages, and the death tolls. That is the parts that will never leave me. The staying inside and only interacting with my household? That didn't even register. 

So, am I weird because of that? I don't know. Yeah, life in 2020 was (as my beloved cousin Elle says) cancelled but we survived it. Life continues. Why are we still making a big deal about it?

Warriyo and Spencer Sutherland

 I am currently into scripted fictional podcasts. They feel like the radio dramas of old while being very modern. Case in point, Vote for Love by Romcom Pod. It was super interesting. Plus, it introduced me to the incredible music of Spencer Sutherland. His voice........will make you melt a little bit. Don't believe me? Check out the video below.

Melted yet? On the other side of the music spectrum, we have Warriyo. If you want to hardcore jam while gaming or washing dishes, play this dude's music. Sample below.

I hope y'all get addicted to this music like me. It gets kinda lonely here otherwise. As always, feel free to leave a message below.

The Heat is on! Can we turn it off now?

 It is so hot outside! Lb2 and Lb4 went on a walk with me and we were soaked when we got back. I am staying inside for the rest of the day.

In other news, I am feeling better but Ls1 is going to get hurt if she keeps whining about how she gets no sleep and no one cares and her head hurts and NO ONE CARES! I walked in is scorching heat to get cough medicine that should help and I DON'T CARE? She makes me tired. Still love her though.

Allergies suck!

 Half of the Sibs have come down with a nasty allergy attack. I am trying to fend one of myself. I am currently so tired that my eyes keep crossing.

I read Tricia Levenseller's The Shadows Between Us yesterday. The first chapter is a little sluggish but by chapter two, the momentum has been established and you find yourself captured. I now need to read Tricia's now completed Bladesmith Duologly.
