The kids wanted to see a movie today and I obliged. We watched Snow White. And I cried y’all! Not because of Gadot’s acting, but because it was just good ol’ storytelling. Hooray for Zegler. Very talented.

I tell family members not to buy copaganda toys for my toddler. It's so normalized that they get bought anyway.
Upon tearing off the wrapping paper, my son responds with "yucky police car".
In my household, copaganda toys find their way into the trash. Where they belong.

Went to Aldo today and when they prompted me to enter my email, I entered a fake one. Then she says after I tap my debit “your receipt has been emailed to you”. Uhg. Should have been given a print option.

For theatre class, we took a field trip to the movies to watch The Rainmaker. It was prolly the beginning of my disinterest in the medical field. I have so many feels about what’s happening.

Me watching a film.
1. Start watching.
2. Wonder what I’ve seen one of the actors in before.
3. Google actor.
4. Go to IMDb/their Wikipedia page.
5. Find out every single detail of their entire life.
6. Realise I’ve completely missed the plot of the film and now have no idea what’s going on.
