A little update on the past week:

-Despite a very low-energy week, I had a boost of motivation to dig into those boxes of things I put aside to sell or donate when I moved. Wound up going through everything, reclaiming a few garments I was going to get rid of (but are cute and fit me??), and packing up everything I'm taking to Goodwill. Now I have just one tote of sellable items, and I'm getting ready to rip off the Depop bandaid and get to work. I also cleaned out my closet, reorganized, and consolidated everything else into one dresser so I can throw out the other one, which is broken.

-Friday, A and I went a few towns over to go axe-throwing. A used to be in an axe-throwing league back in PA and was missing it. I've only done it once before, but I really enjoyed it so I was down to try it again. Unfortunately, we weren't really into the location we went to. Everything seemed just a little janky--the lanes were too short, I kept bumping into a cabinet behind me that I couldn't move, and A actually broke one of his axes! We're going to try a place that's part of a different franchise next time. But it was fun! A got his groove back (and was showing off left and right), and I feel like I'm getting the hang of things.

-Yesterday we saw Oppenheimer. A is a big Nolan fan, so he had been wanting to see it, and I was just amused by the "Barbieheimer" memes so I thought, what the hell, let's see both. I'm really glad I saw it. I really enjoyed the visual aspect of it--it definitely warrants a theater viewing. It's long, which I kind of anticipated, but was still surprised when I didn't get out of the theater until 3 hours later. I could dork out about the acting and costume and set design, but I'll rein myself in.
