I jinxed myself by saying nothing was going on because the universe made me sick just to give me something going on. 😑 Wednesday night my throat started hurting and I was like oh no...and sure enough I woke up Thursday and had to call off work lmao. It was just a cold, but I ended up calling off Friday too because I still felt gross. I was scheduled to go in today but by some miracle we closed due to the weather so I didn't have to go in!! Thank god because I'm still kind of phlegmy and coughing a lot today. 😰 Impromptu 4-day weekend where I did literally nothing.

I spent most of Thursday and Friday curled up on the couch in a blanket either napping, scrolling social media, reading fanfic, or playing the Ace Attorney Apollo game compilation. On the plus side, I got through a decent chunk of Dual Destinies--I'm on the last episode now! Once I finish that I'll write up my thoughts and continue on to Spirit of Justice.

I did also get some work done on my makeshift 2024 reading journal. I filled out the sheets for the books I read at the beginning of the year (before I started recording them on the reading log notepad I bought) so now I just have to decide what extra stats/layouts I want to draw in the journal and paste the individual review sheets in. (I've also been debating doing a media journal rather than just a reading journal for this year, like a physical copy of my listography but with more detailed reviews for some stuff. The problem is figuring out what kind of notebook/journal I want to use for it and how I want to set it up...)

Somewhere in the sickness haze I did finally watch Suzume (dir. Makoto Shinkai) which I had been putting off forever. I loved Your Name a lot but I was not very keen on Weathering with You so I was like which way is Suzume going to swing... In the end I'd say Suzume landed in the middle; this is why you can't make your best movie first nothing will ever live up to it!! But I enjoyed Suzume more than I expected, so I was pleasantly surprised. Also Daijin was very cute lmao.

I'm hoping this cough dies down by tomorrow, I'll mask regardless but it's always so embarrassing to be coughing a lot in public like jhskdjfhs I'm so sorry I swear it's just the remnants of a cold don't look at me.

Why I didn't bother watching the other movies. I also knew nothing was gonna beat Your Name for me (along with the movie holding other significance for me). Glad to hear it wasn't a total bust for you though.

Feel better soon ♥️
