My Mad Fat Diary

 Yesterday was another episode of The Really Really Free Market! I feel another Clapton Is God moment about to burst:

Some of the highlights from yesterday include: spotting a DVD copy of Raising Arizona that may or may not have been the same box being picked up and dropped off from one table to the next; getting a free oat milk "latte" flavored generously with vanilla bourbon syrup (non alcoholic); having a spontaneous conversation with a teenagerish person about our favorite Victorian authors; and another delightful sandwich and some rather soupy apple cobbler from Food Not Bombs. 

I've been giving a lot of thought to becoming a volunteer somewhere soon, and I've contacted Food Not Bombs to see if they need help in my area. I literally just emailed so I don't know anything yet. I'd been interested in serving food to people who need it and I love the work they've been doing so maybe this will work out! I'm excited to do it especially now that I'm vaccinated. I have been wanting to volunteer again somewhere for so long and this feels right to me.

Well, I'd like to say more but my computer has a low battery. I'm about 3/4 done reading 1Q84 and still working on Breakfast of Champions. I've been binge watching The Good Fight on my new dvd player and it's pretty good. It begins as the 2016 election happens and the unfortunate part is reliving all the antics of the first two years (so far) of that administration. I'd almost rather have a show that is MORE removed from reality.
