Personal Digest Saturday: January 23 – January 29

Life news this week: 

• Saturday was super packed with stuff. I went to my friend Keith's house to make a video about science fiction stuff and Steven Universe, and then after that we went to Drink and Draw club. I got to meet a couple new people, eat a new sandwich, and draw some crap, plus I got to catch up with Joy and Eric. Yay!
  
• Sunday I just relaxed watching cartoons, reading, and writing e-mails and doing household chores. We all need days like that.
  
• Monday I worked my day job as usual and also I went on a shopping spree online buying a bunch of cartoon stuff 'cause I can. Also spent the day and the next day answering e-mails, watching cartoon stuff, and doing some old editing.
  
• Wednesday was Jeaux Day. We ate at Five Guys, watched Galavant, and talked about aromanticism, feminism, and cartoons.
  
• Thursday was Rain City. I didn't really get wet on the way to work though. When I came home Victor was waiting for me and he had gotten soaked in the rain, so I threw him in the shower and made him wear blankets while I washed and dried his clothes. Then we made pizza cones (something neither of us had tried before), ate them, and opened my birthday and holiday gifts that he had never sent me. Haha. He gave me a cool literary pillow, some candy, a cat bank, a couple books, a couple CDs, some stickers, and a fortune-telling pen.
  
• Friday I came home after work and ate my last pizza cone, did my comic and read the rest of a book, and watched silly things on YouTube until I fell asleep.
