Adventures of a well-rounded geek
Wednesday evenings have kind of become stay at home date nights with Shari recently, and they're great. Since I'm not seeing my family these days, it's nice having something to look forward to mid week. I normally go over to her apartment and we make dinner and watch a show (shout out for The Owl…
Christmas lights, baked goods, music, a Christmas tree, and movies filled my weekend. Shari and I went to the Botanic Gardens at Chatfield on Saturday evening where we wandered around the grounds looking at all the Christmas lights. Shari had never been to this botanic gardens before and I had never been for their holiday…
I dressed up as Squirrel Girl! I am so incredibly thrilled and proud. There have been many people I have wanted to dress up as but I usually become overwhelmed with the idea of finding all the pieces to create the outfit or I feel like I don't have the money or I couldn't do…
Yesterday evening, Elisabeth and I met up with Shari to go on the hunt for our next location within the Astrid Lee scavenger hunt. We made our way downtown to watch the art light show that happens at the D&F Tower, the clocktower off of 16th street. We saw a variety of neat graphics by…
This weekend was quite lovely. First, you should know that Elisabeth, Shari, and I signed up to take part in a city-wide scavenger hunt put on by The History Colorado Center called The Lost Book of Astrid Lee. It's kind of weird, definitely a bit complicated, but overall fun. We get clues that we have…
After work on Monday, Elisabeth and I met up with Kayla for a picnic dinner. We went to the lovely Ketring Park again and lounged on the grass, eating our garbanzo bean sandwiches and animal crackers, and talking about Kayla's moving logistics, work, and baklava (turns out I can shift any conversation to the topic…
Last night ended up being quite joyful. I danced to my music while waiting for Elisabeth to pick me up to go to Felfel (she isn't a fan of the heat so she didn't want to walk over). And I made this gif of myself that I quite like. I think I'm really warming up…
The bats are still here! Last night I saw them again. Whatever the roof people were doing yesterday it wasn't killing or trapping them, thankfully. This time around I grabbed my phone and attempted to record their evening flight. At first I was very nervous to get up close, and I jumped back after the…
Sunday I didn't have any plans, and it actually turned out okay, I really enjoyed my day and wasn't anxious at all. I dropped off my compost at Dirt Coffee, took care of my plants (I discovered I killed my last air plant, the one I had brought with me from the house, so that…
On Friday, I got out of work an hour early so I could go to the blood doctor. This was the first time that I felt 100% confident that my platelets were normal. I had no worries whatsoever and that felt great. And lo and behold, my platelets are normal! /celebratory dance. I have to…
