I have recieved an email asking me to go to a job interview. Hella happy about that. And later today I will see the sun eclipse. That will be great.
a solar eclipse?! in this time of year, in this part of the world, localized entirely within your kitchen???
may I see it?
(good luck on the interview!)
Struggling. I find it frustrating at how long it takes me to accomplish anything... hours for cooking anything, even simple meals. Unable to accurately search for answers from search engines, spending hours trying to do something simple. Literally overheating because my brain can't function anymore.
Great, now I will have disco He-Man stuck in my head for the rest of the day.
