jetpack_monkeyIt's been nearly two months since I made a post. Let's not do that again, huh? (I will totally do that again)
I've been making some changes, trying out new things, and I fell into something really good unexpectedly.
* I started going to a gym, Nerdstrong, which has these geeky Crossfit workouts. I don't go every week, but when I don't go, I try to do a little mini workout at home and then go for a brief run. I've found when I don't work out at least a little, my brain turns to sludge. Brains and bodies work well together, apparently.
* Cooking! I'm doing it. Really basic stuff. Pasta, porkchops, grilled cheese. I have the ingredients for a chicken parmigiana for when I'm feeling a little bolder.
* Movie Nights. I'm having friends over for a monthly movie night where I show something weird from my collection while drinks are had. It's gone over really well I think.
* Something Good Unexpectedly. I don't want to get into any details on this because it's still very amorphous and unsure. But if it works out, I promise I will say more. I really want it to work out. I'll know for certain in August.

My fingers are crossed for your unexpected good thing :)

Pasta is literally just a big pot with boiling water, put pasta in, stir occasionally, take pasta out after like 9-10 minutes. Maybe add salt. Serve with pre-made sauce you bought at the store and warmed up (just pop it in the microwave, honestly).
Most meats are like, put meat in greased pan, maybe add salt? Medium heat, some amount of time on each side until it looks significantly different from when you put it in. Serve.
