rose: brendan and i have watched a lot of good shows together. and every time we're currently watching a show, it's my favourite. but the episode we watched tonight of game of thrones was crazy good. like, the best. really really satisfying. i'm thinking about reading the books. they'd go into a lot more detail i'm sure.

thorn: i've found that i've reached the end of my mat leave routine, and i'm feeling sad about it. i know that my new routine will be good, and i'm excited about each new activity. but i'm nervous about the unknown, and the process of settling into a new normal. i'm hoping it will at least go smoothly. i'm struggling to find a babysitter for otis during my part-time hours at next. i'm trying not to stress about it, because i know something will work out. i think i'm partly anxious because i'm ready for him to have a babysitter, and for me to just focus on next stuff when i'm at next. juggling him and my duties is a lot, and i want to just do one at a time.
