will it be cookies or cake tomorrow?

y’know, I’ve gotten ahold of two mini ‘personal air conditioners’ which are essentially tiny swamp coolers and I gotta say, they suck (but then again I’ve never met a swamp cooler that actually worked, so I may be biased). at least the second one I got lets me add ice into the water tank 😞 one day I’ll find one that works for me, but hopefully one of these (both?) will work to keep me cool when the heat really hits next month.

have you ever drowned in notebooks? I think that may be my fate. a couple of my buddies have joked about the amount I have after the catastrophic (and hilarious) notebook tower we used for something, but dear god. I keep getting more, and someone needs to slap my hand and stop me. (my most recent get was some Spy x Family branded Kokuyo Campus ones, not that I’ve ever read/seen the series or anything because I haven’t watched anything from post-2013, it feels like.)

I’ve been watching niece during the days since it’s summer vacation for The Youthâ„¢, but lately at night I’ll open my bedroom door and she’s just. there. in the hallway. it’s like 10:30 in the evening child, why are you up? “I’m not tired.” so then she follows me into the kitchen and just sits herself on one of the counters while I’m out there doing dishes or filling my water bottle, chatting all the while about what she wants to do the next day. tonight I let her take my weighted pug plushie into her room as a bribe to get her to lay down and try to sleep instead of sitting there grilling me about what we’ll bake tomorrow 😭kids absolutely slay me and I’ll have to go through this again (with twins!) after my sister gives birth.

(if, 10 years ago, you’d asked me if I’d be taking care of kids—and not ones of my own—I’d have probably laughed at you because lolkids, but honestly this is one of the few things I can say I’m comfortable doing in life.)
