Super Chill Sunday
I didn’t rush out of bed today. I didn’t have to. My fridge was stocked, my laundry was complete. I didn’t need to go anywhere or see anyone. I could take time for myself and do the things I wanted to do. To be honest that isn’t a lot different than most days lately but I was going to enjoy it today. I played my two accounts of MSF until I’d exhausted what I could do. While I was doing that, I watched a bunch of YouTube. These things bring me joy, or at least I’m pretty sure they do. Eventually I got up and cleaned myself up, ready to start the day. Dressed in only the most comfy clothes I made my way down to the kitchen. I tossed a couple chorizo sausages into a pan and then scrambled four eggs with some milk, salt and pepper. I added the egg mixture to the browned sausage and when the eggs had partially set I sprinkled in some shredded cheese. Normally I’d reach for the Pilsbury Crescents but this time I decided to kick it old school and wrap this mixture up. You can learn more about the process here, minus the bacon of course.
I did what I normally do and used a plate to evenly press the wrap into the hot pan. It goes better when it’s ripping hot, you don’t get as much orange, straight to brown. I put less in each this time and it made three breakfast burritos. Since it was mid-morning and I had a fierce hunger going I figured I’d take it all down, sticking to my two meals a day on weekend regime. And that’s just what I did, washed down with some pink lemonade.
I wasn’t feeling ready to run a half marathon with that pile of chow in my guts so instead I decided it was time to take a run at clearing some of the lingering MSC challenges from September. It took longer than I expected but I finally closed out September. I’m closing in on two years of perfect months. I like these little challenges, they keep my mind limber and give me something to track the days if nothing else.
I started to work on Musings again but instead I decided that YouTube and MSF held more appeal. I was going hard on an audiobook also. Later in the afternoon I decided that I’d clean up the leftovers from the Feast for my second meal. I fried some onions and wilted some spinach in the pan before cooking the egg. It was nearly as good the second time around. I added a bit of sriracha this time though, feeling that it was on the bland side. I didn’t have the right gochujang sauce so maybe I was missing the heat. This was a reliable substitute heat source. It was spicy. The carrots were definitely not as good the next day but the rest of it was pretty okay. After a more extensive cleanup than most leftover meals warrant I returned to the computer.
My plan was to do Musings but instead I order Sudbury Sister’s birthday gift and signed up for Amazon Prime in the process. The gift was set to be delivered the next day, in a city hundreds of kilometers away. I was pretty shocked at the difference between Prime and not Prime. I also ordered a Christmas gift for Mother and it was set to arrive in a few days. I guess I don’t have to wait weeks anymore for my Amazon stuff. The reason I signed up wasn’t for the expedited delivery times though, it was for the streaming service. I was planning to wait until Wheel of Time was available but this Leaf show, All or Nothing was getting my attention and I wanted to consume it. I spent the rest of the afternoon doing exactly that. I chugged it all in one sitting. Then I flipped over and started watching Jack Ryan, which Rek highly recommended to me. I took down the better part of the first season before I realized I wasn’t going to be able to get it all like I did with Hardy Boys and Queen’s Gambit on prevous Sunday binges. I tapped out and headed to bed around ten.
