Happy to do it! We're all in this (this being both "toku fandom" and "IRL existing") together!

Structure is super important! I can usually only do a day or two of unstructured existence before I need to feel like there's an agenda. Making little projects helps, I find. Even if it's for dumb things (organize cards, change around a figure display), it can add a sense of productivity to a day.

Best of luck on finding something academically to get excited about. There's something out there, for sure.

Oof. Not really? Social distancing makes a lot of summer social options feel ill-advised. Going out to things, meeting up with friends... sort-of not on my radar so much right now?

Like, really ready to start watching Blade. Not doing any Kamen Rider stuff this past week... it's nice at first, to slow it all down, but then it's like Well Now What, especially since I'm just at home when I'm not at work. I've got some after-hours work stuff on Saturday, then watching New Japan Pro-Wrestling's event Sunday night. That's about it that's out of routine.

You? How are you marking off the hours?

Hmm. Not "worried", per se. More like "anticipating".

Business in June was about 90% of June 2019, which was a relief, but June 2019 was catastrophically bad, so. With nationwide numbers moving in the direction they are, we've definitely been planning on needing to move our operations back to curbside/delivery/shipping. We're prepared, which is about all we can do right now. The retail landscape is not very stable, but we're taking it as it comes.

I'm spending money on SO-DO like money ain't going to be in short supply, at least!

Aww, I'm sorry to hear that. As someone who always had a rough time with schoolwork, don't take it too hard.

Oh! Good to know! Thanks!

Also, how's your class going?

Ha ha, YEAH, I'd say it's good that you've got an extra month. Phew!

Oh, man. MAN. Hang in there!

Awesome! Congrats! And, I don't know, getting into the course you wanted AND getting a room cleaned sounds like two good things!

EDIT: hey guess who never heard that spoons phrase before this guy. Sorry! I Googled, and am now hopefully better equipped to understand. Try and take it easy on yourself! Don't feel like you've got to do too much. It's cool to feel like you've got things lined up and you can take on the world, but it doesn't all have to be in one day!

What does the coursework look like? Is it more project-oriented, or more written reports and testing?

Back at you!
