I just put a new inhaler in my inhaler sock! It kinda feels like it’s birthday or something. As I use it I feel like there are things I could have done differently, and now I want to make another but I don’t want to abandon my original!

Book cover of My Year of Rest and Relaxation by Ottessa Moshfegh. The cover features a classical-style oil painting of a young woman with dark hair in a white empire-waist dress, seated and gazing to the side with a blank expression. A pink drape is tossed over the chair behind her. The title is in bold, uppercase pink text at the top, and the author’s name is in similar pink text at the bottom. A small note in red text reads, “A novel by the author of Eileen.”

Book cover for Lucky Day by Chuck Tingle. The illustration is a surreal, colorful depiction of a playing card king turned sideways. The king has cartoonish features, green and purple hair, and an “X” for one eye; the other eye is a bleeding eyeball on a stalk. Flames rise behind his head. He points upward with one hand and holds a detached eyeball in the other. Below, purple tentacles emerge from a grinning cartoon mouth. The title “Chuck Tingle” is in large pink letters, with “Lucky Day” in green underneath. Taglines read: “A scream! — The New York Times Best Book 2024” and “All bets are off.” Four-leaf clovers line the bottom.

Just had my birthday a few days ago. I sent my spouse a link of what I wanted for my birthday. He got me all the stuff I wanted to dye my hair and a lego set. I put the legos together and put them in a vase that was a gift from my grandmother.
A clear, cut-crystal vase holds three decorative flowers made from shiny, translucent LEGO pieces with green stems and golden accents, placed on a red metal table, the red paint chipped in places. The vase is surrounded by other potted plants, including a white pot with green painted letters and a yellow, beehive-shaped pot with bee decorations and rope handles. Lush green plants fill the background, creating a vibrant, indoor garden scene.

Bought a “fancy” journal. Feel like I have to use my “fancy” pen. It feels nice to journal again.
A photo of a faux leather journal with a clasp latch. The cover is dark blue with the phases of the moon in a large circle in the background with a Luna moth superimposed in front of it. Beneath the Luna moth is a cicada, beneath the cicada is a bee. Sitting on top of the journal is an open fountain pen with the cap off and angled to the left. The fountain pen is teal.
