Nonsensical Sunday

Just need to unload some silly thoughts....

...why is it difficult to find fresh/frozen chicken wings in stores? If you do, they're the most expensive part of the chicken. Is there a shortage on chicken wings?

...there was a block party on my street last Thursday. The residents hosted a holiday buffet for those big scavenger birds. There's at least one bird in front of each house, opening the gift package that is the garbage bag.

...are there people who buy those big as a baby fishes in international grocery stores?

...I pickled some radish today. I used Korean radish, cubed it. About 1/3 c distilled white vinegar, 1/3 c water, and 1/3 c sugar. Just poured the pickling juice and will let it stay. They recommend to let it sit for 2 days. I'm excited to try it. Need to air fry some meats to eat those. Wish me luck! If I'm successful, I may pickle some carrots too. Oh, exciting! I'll be a pickle queen! LOL

...it feels like winter now. This year feels much colder than last, at least where I am. I'm enjoying the sweat pants and sweater outfit. cozy.

...happy to be in touch with 2 of my friends here. They're really helping me get through life. I'm very very grateful for them. <3

...I'm feeling a bit crappy at the moment. I would blame the booster shot but I think it's just my ttom. I hope I don't get sick. Maybe I'll nyquil tonight.

...I'm excited for next week. Short work week and long rest. I sure hope I can rest. Been dragged into another work with tight deadline, oh dear, i hope we don't have to work through the holidays. *please*

...I want soup. I'll have soup tonight.

... A bit annoyed with my selection of k-drama these days. Too many "love"/"romance" stories. It's not the inspiring one, but the annoying one. I'm disappointed about another drama, they sell it as "detective" and "food" drama, somehow I haven't really seen any focus on food. I think I've been had.

...have I written about Squid Game? Not remembering. But yeah, I watched it. I liked it. I was hesitant to watch it at first. But I'm such a sucker for drama and found myself crying in some episodes. Such a sucker. I do wish they did not dub it in English. I prefer to watch subtitles -- I get to learn some words, expressions, etc. Unfortunately, I'm seeing a trend in Netflix where they're dubbing the popular k-dramas. Ugh! (Oh my, I hope they don't eventually dub CLOY. Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I still plan to rewatch this if and when I'm in a show hole).

...tiny homes, tiny life, tiny people.... and now tiny cats. I'm following "Tiny Tim's Tiny Life" and "Korn the Kitten Cat". Both very smol kittens, now starting to be cats. Sickly but continuing to fight and trying to thrive. Korn gets hurt after playing, maybe she plays rough, but too smol and fragile for rough play.

Take care everyone! I hope you're keeping safe, healthy, and all your needs are provided for. If things are fantastic at the moment, I'm very happy for you. Cherish this time and moment, and may this happiness and peace continue. If, however, you're at a point in life where you're struggling, I hope you don't give up. You are not alone. Continue fighting. Things will get better. In the meantime, this diary is here for us to vent all our frustrations and anger, and maybe one day, you'll write about good things that happen to you. Take care, be safe, may peace and love reign in your life.
