also there was a trailer for the next Jurassic Park movie and NO I DIDN'T CRY SHUT UP YOU'RE CRYING. not because of the content other than EEEEEE DINOSAURS. I just hope to hell it isn't as much of a total stinkshow as the last one.

watched Black Panther last night; Spoilery Thought 

at the end I really *really* wanted T'Challa to tell Erik (Killmonger) something like "you know, I agree with some of what you said--we can maybe save you, and you have such a strong spirit, and we could use some of your ideas except maybe not all the murdering." like he didn't even acknowledge any of that, just "welp here's Wakanda, you lost and now you get to die, sucks to be you bud."

btw Shuri = BEST. CHARACTER. EVER.

so yeah I slept eventually, but only four hours, sooooo yeah. very likely gonna need a hefty nap today, and feel like... a tired person the rest of the day. go team me! /fistwave

insomnia, poor life decisions 

so instead of lying in bed not sleeping, I'm going to play World of Warcraft, because why the hell not. 9___9

insomnia, poor life decisions 

* while trying to go to sleep, I continued reading (on my phone) a book that has been increasingly interesting to me.
* by the time I realized what time it was I'd spent two hours lying in bed not sleeping.
* WELP.

I have no idea when I'm actually going to be able to get to sleep, but it's not gonna be anytime soon. :|

insomnia, poor life decisions 

went to see Black Panther (which was beautiful and fabulous), and got a Coke icee to drink, without thinking about it carefully.
* I've hardly had any caffeine for the last couple of months.
* the movie started--and I started drinking the drink--at 6:50. I usually go to sleep around 9 or 10.
* I have had problems with insomnia in the past, and have specific routines to prevent it--which I forgot to do when I came home and went to bed.
* (but wait there's more)

gotta enjoy it while it lasts--it's supposed to transition to rain pretty soon and wash the remaining snow accumulations away. :(

Melinda says she was high on somethin' called Sink Sunshine. It's a pain killer for bald eagles.

Does anyone know of an artist that would accept a commission to draw a few 3-4 frame animations of this mawr ✨plush✨ flailing their arms with a couple of different expressions? :3

There's this one self-affirmation talk that's been marketed under 4510 different titles. I decided to train a neural net to generate some more.

depression mention (not me), survey, please fill out if you can! 

A friend of a friend is doing a survey on depression in undergrads and coping mechanisms as part of their masters thesis.

You just need to have had: some time at an undergraduate institution, and some symptoms of depression. You don't even need to have graduated.

Critter Report (mostly good) 

and we have a barn owl, who was brought in unresponsive and expected to die overnight, and now three days later is scheduled for release next week. apparently he was just weak/dehydrated, and may have had a muscle injury in one of his wings, but it's cleared up completely and he's fit and feisty now! I didn't get to see him either. XD

and... that's about it for the critter roundup!

Critter Report (mostly good) 

we still have the otter, she's doing great; got her broken tooth removed, is completely recovered from that, and is due to be released next week.

we also still have the saw whet owl, whose prognosis is still guarded but positive. oh, and we now have a red-tailed hawk, which I was hoping to watch as it got its exam and radiographs, but that was scheduled after my shift was over. they didn't know exactly what was wrong with it, hence the need for the exam.
