I don't fucking care if you like it

I want to print this New Republic article on fabric, make it into a dress and wear it every day for the rest of my life.

This essay is depressing, though. "Things aren’t getting better for women on the Internet; they’re deteriorating, and ignoring the problem amounts to being complicit in it."

On the other hand, it's Friday. So yay. I didn't have any bad dreams last night. I slept well. I made it to the gym this morning where I did not injure myself (or anyone else).

I completed nearly all of my food prep for SDCC last night (meatballs, salmon cakes, and banana/almond flour pancakes--all of which freeze and travel well). The jerky has been marinading since Tuesday. I'll dry it Sunday. I'm set for protein for the trip! I also made myself a new pair of bloomers to wear for PJ bottoms.

While I was running errands (new water bottle, my own package of A shirts so I don't have to steal [livejournal.com profile] mckitterick's for sleeping in, memory card for the GoPro), I picked up a container of this curl lotion. God damn it is amazing. It encourages curl without being stiff (like a lot of curl lotions), nor does it get flaky/chalky (like mousse). Also, it smells delicious. I have no idea why I never thought to look in the African-American hair aisle for curl lotions. I'm throwing out my other curl products when I get home tonight.

Five more hours until the weekend. I'm giving myself tonight off to just hang and enjoy [livejournal.com profile] mckitterick's company. Then tomorrow morning I hit the ground running and don't really stop until I leave for San Diego. Latenight Callers show, KC errands, grocery shopping and food prep for [livejournal.com profile] mckitterick's week in my absence, two going-away parties for grad students, training session, henna, laundry, and then it's Monday.
