It's going to be 91F/32.77C! Spring no longer exists. But on a happier note we're going to try to work in the yard today. If I am lucky I will be able to fix my gate and plant my herbs and vegetables. Got Oregano, basil, parsley, San Marzano tomatoes, and green peppers.

This post is for casual conversation if you don’t feel like making a post of your own.

Going to watch Project Hail Mary today.

Ooh I just heard about that one on NPR yesterday. I don't usually like going to the movies but I may for that one.

I read the book when it came out. One of the few books I've ever pre-ordered just because it was written by Andy Weir. I wasn't disappointed.

I'll say, the single best part about it is that the story has the best supporting character since Chewbacca.

San Marzano is GOAT tomato, may you have a bountiful harvest.

Probably playing some Star Wars games, the TCG and/or watching another one of the movies today.

On a non-star wars note, probably harvesting some lovage from the balcony

Enjoy your sunny weather! New date came over last night for a movie. It's a big American basketball weekend. He'll be watching with his friends today and tomorrow, so I've got the whole weekend to myself. I really should get some of that paper done, but I'm already feeling like it's a lounge around and relax day.
