I've started an appendix (I no longer have one personally) to keep track of my Space Cadet journals for Space Blog. It's a work constantly under construction. Mind the mess.

Got my month of contests set up.

Got a few people to read why I was upset.

I live for connections in ways that many people don't.

They have family, partners, children. I have Laxmi gifting me tacos and Bri sharing mushrooms and asparagus. Yes, I am fortunate; but, I'm still very isolated and lonely and the disconnect here makes it worse. I feel like the unlikable kid in the class that everyone pities or shuns.

So much fun.

After a not-so-cool night it's gonna get hot.

What I won in May:

60 degrees *Sun* at 8:40.

I'm working on coffee. It's already warm inside.

74 degrees at 11:30

Fettuccine with meat sauce, a piece of cake. Then to market to buy packaging tape. Bought coffee.

Smelled the lilacs and iris on the way home. I wore my orange Costa Rica monkey t-shirt, my Orioles cap and my orange backpack. I was ab-fab brilliant today.

80 degrees at 1:33

. I'm hoping for weekly reminders, although one can catch up.

87 degrees at 4:44

I'm watching a Thai BL "Dark Blue Kiss". Nothing quite like a Thai soap-opera. I wonder whether I'll learn anything about Thai culture from this. At least one of the characters isn't wealthy. The relationships though... a bit edgy.

Well it hit at least 88 degrees today. It's still 85 at 8:22.

A reminder to myself: Pay Rent!
