Let's knock out some gratitude

- Yesterday - Friday - was really nice. The weather was cool, like 68. I walked to downtown OP (got 18K steps by end of day), hit the new coffeeshop (lots of Scrabble potential for me and Ann), bought an anti-racism workbook at the local bookstore, ate at the vegan cafe where I ran into a friendly acquaintance and a stranger struck up a convo with me over the anti-racism workbook.
- Red, White, and Royal Blue was kinda ridic but I LOVED it! Loved it
- Jeni's ice cream makes a vegan lemon bar flavor. Only Whole Foods carried it but I asked my local food coop to order it, and they said they will!
- Twice I partook in a fic exchange and I was "forced" to write either a pairing (Murphy/Bellamy in T100) or a setting (Wesper but make it a royalty AU) that I never would have chosen to do. And I loved it both times! Fic exchanges are awesome
- That's it? I feel like I should have a few more. Well, one of my S&B fics is currently at 195 kudos. I think it will hit 200. So, if I am lucky enough, it'll be my 3rd fic to hit the 200 mark! (I also have another, cowritten with a friend, that has been in the 190s forever and I think will sooner or later hit 200 but it may be a while)

It's not my best work but it's good.
And look, I loved RW&B but it is cringe too, so you're not missing anything. :)
