My 290th Journal Entry

Hi, Journal!

I've gotta figure something out.

You know who is doing you know what the way you know he always does, but it's a squidgen more serious I feel like, and I also feel like I should be able to help. You know?

And I know I can, so it's just a matter of figuring out how. Right?

Maybe all I need to do is shake a finger at him and say, "Get to bed earlier!" and if he did, he'd get more rest and have more energy to keep himself doing the stuff he needs to do to stay the healthy, happy person I know he can be. Which, definitely for sure I'll try that.

But I'd really like to do more, and it's a puzzler.

I mean, duh, the obvious thing is to be all seductive like and get him to boff me tomorrow, with some extra special cluddliness (I don't know how you spell that) before and after and some giggling in the middle so he knows how happy he makes me. Seems kinda like cheating and only a temporary solution, though.

Whoosh.

Relationships! So much work, amiright?

Except you and me, Journal. We're easy-peasy!

See ya!

My 289th Journal Entry

Hi, Journal!

Oboy. Apparently all that math I did last time just plain wore me out for blogging.

Still plenty of time to get to 300 by December 31, though!

My 288th Journal Entry

Hi, Journal!

We tried this thing and I surprisingly really really liked it, so...

Recipe for Whiskey-Soaked Ginger Snaps!

Ingredients:

Whiskey (enough to cover a ginger snap)

Ginger Snaps (probably not more than 2 or 3 if you're a lightweight like me)

1. Pour whiskey into a flat-bottomed glass until it is about as deep as a ginger snap is thick.

2. Put a ginger snap in the glass.

3. When soaked, remove ginger snap and eat.

4. Repeat.

5. (optional) Drink any whiskey that's still in the glass, but be sure to sip carefully!

I may have done this with more than 2 or 3 ginger snaps while I was figuring out the recipe.

Hi, Journal!

Peanut butter is a weird food. I just completely do not know how foods like that get invented.

My 286th Journal Entry

Hi, Journal!

Dang it, I remembered I'm supposed to do math this time. Poopers.

So I guess there are 31 days in December and 30 in November and today's the 12th and there are 31 in October, so (uh-oh, hard part ... subtraction!) errr, 19 days left this month? Hey, I did it! And 19 + 31 is 50 and 50 + 30 is 80, so 80 days left this year!

Isn't there a book where they go around the world that fast? Seems like if they could go around the world, I could write another 14 journal entries.

Now the extra-hard part, division. How many times does 14 go into 80? It's not 10, that would be 140, way too many. But half 140 is 70, so I guess half of going into 80 10 times would be 5 times. Which means I've got 5 days and a little bit to write each entry?

Whoa, easy peasy!

Now I feel all confident from knowing how easy it's going to be ... and from doing math!

Success!

My 285th Journal Entry

Hi, Journal!

Holy mole-hole-aroni, I just realized we're practically up to 300 entries, Journal! If I want to get there by the end of the year, I bet I could do it. All it would take would be ... uh ... first, I guess, doing some math to figure out how many days are left in the year and how often I'll have to write an entry to get there in time.

Yech. Math! I mean, I know I could do it, but how is that fun?

I mean, I guess journaling doesn't always have to 100% be fun, but it doesn't have to be math either!

Hmm ... but on the other hand, if I do that math in a different entry, I'll already be two entries closer to hitting 300, so ...

Score! It's a plan, Journal.

See you there!

My 284th Journal Entry

Hi, Journal!

YAWN!!!

I'm sorry, but the boyfriend took so long writing and then Claire took a while coming up with a great poem and now I am just beat!

Time for some nighty-nighting!

My 283rd Journal Entry

Hi, Journal!

MSG is so tired lately! He needs some perking up.

Perk! Perk! Perk!

Actually, we did some perking, what, maybe Friday morning?

That was for sure plenty perky.

But he also needs some perkiness for stuff that's not that kind of perking.

I'll keep reminding him!

This may partly need me and the other girls to de-perkify him near bedtime so he gets to sleep at the right time of night and not way late!

That guy and staying up too late!

My 282nd Journal Entry

Hi, Journal!

There are

So.

Many.

Games!

We keep learning and learning new games and the BF keeps getting more of them on Kickstart'ems (or something like that), and ...

I think I'm actually getting pretty good at playing them and keeping track of all the rules!

I mean, I don't know if I could just jump back in super-easy to the Broken Worlds game we started off with (on account of that being months and months ago), but I bet I wouldn't have a hard time at all going back to Dungeon Crawl Classics or the scary space RPG, and right now we're kinda switching between Dungeons and Dragons (Sasha made me promise to call it that even though it's really a knockoff) and this one that's sort of almost more of a board game called The Fantasy Trip that MSG found a choose-your-own-adventure kinda module for.

Anyway, it made me realize, I HAVE A HOBBY!

I mean, blogging is maybe something some people would call a hobby, but I feel like that's more just about me being a person who needs to get some things out once in a while. Plus journaling is a great habit. 

Maybe that makes blogging a habby not a hobby.

Anyway, it's super great to be doing a lot more gaming lately.

Maybe I'll run a game just for you someday, Journal!

My 281st Journal Entry

Hi, Journal,

We got back to playing D&D this weekend! Yay!

I always forget how much fun it is until we're doing it again.

I just love RPG games!

My 280th Journal Entry

Hi, Journal!

Holy. Moly.

It's almost been a month since my last blog post! Yikes!

And I don't even want to think about how long it's been since Sash and I blogged on our Experiences blog ...

Oh, dang, now I went and thought about it. I really didn't want to! Really!

There's even been plenty we could have blogged about there ... shows, movies, some other stuff ...

Well, I'm not going to feel bad about it!

That would be even stinkier than being such a stinky-bad blogger.

Bye!
