Finished Lower Decks today

I finished the end of Lower Decks today, and it was a very cozy feeling. I really enjoyed this series and found it very comforting over the last few weeks. One of those feel-good shows I could watch over and over again. I have nostalgia for it even though I literally just watched the last episode less than 3 hours ago. 

I'm surprised it doesn't have a bigger fan following considering how good it is. It's not really something I've heard people talk about or seen people dress up as, although I suppose I wouldn't recognize it if I did. I can barely find any fan art from it, which is a shame. 

It has some of the best depictions of female characters I think I've ever seen. My favorite character is Tendi, the green Orion. She is such a unique personality. They did such a good job. 

For years I had this weird itch or pulling every time I would see Lower Decks pop up on the screen because it reminded me of how the owners of my old house would watch it. It brought back bad memories, but I also remember catching glimpses of it and thinking it was legitimately cute, so I wanted to give it a chance and watch it eventually. I'm so glad I did. 

Normally I feel a strong pull to keep seeking out fanfiction or fan art or anything that would draw out the addiction to my binging the show, since I really fell in love with it. But the ending felt so satisfying that I feel like it has just come to a natural end. I'm okay moving on from here. With very few shows has that ever happened to me before. But I think about it and it makes me happy in a way that the feelings are still lingering. How lovely.

Running update - 2 miles achieved!

The Monkey Bar Gym has been closed during the week because of Summerfest, which means all my krav and boxing classes have been cancelled. My muay thai instructor and I talked about doing some outdoor exercises in its place; but it was nearly 100 degrees with full sun and incredibly high humidity these past 3 days, so that was out. In fact, I went for a walk on my lunch break on Friday afternoon and felt sick for the rest of the day from the heat. I was hoping then to get some hiking, running, or rocking climbing in on Saturday or Sunday, and to make it to a krav or hot yoga class on Sunday; but none of these things worked out. The heat prevented me from being able to do any outdoor activities, and no one was able to go rock climbing with me. Saturday I went up to Baraboo with Jennifer Koss to do some hiking and swimming at Pewit's Nest, but because it was so hot, we didn't end up doing a lot of the former. But I got home so late and was so exhausted from the heat (also, my shou...

Pole update: layback achieved!

I finally got my cross-ankle layback tonight! I wore my new Wonder Woman shorts so I'd have more grip in my thighs and followed the advice from a blog I recently read, which said to go into it from a reverse Superwoman. It worked! I was able to get it every time except for once, when I think it wasn't close enough to my crotch. And then because I was able to get the layback, I was able to work on bow and arrow and got it on the first try. After that, it was pretty easy to keep doing it (especially since my leg grip was so good). Also, my flag is looking better. I can raise both legs now pretty horizontally and hold them there for a while on both sides.  BOOYAKASHA!

Daily Journal

したこと: - Found out someone at work was trying to groom me to cheat on his wife with him, something he's tried before with other women at work, unsuccessfully.  - Had to sign paperwork with my boss in the room stating that I understand employees are allowed to have relationships with each other (I never questioned that) after someone claimed I made a statement I never did after they themselves made many compromising statements. Awkward situations abound now. But everyone has to work professionally and deal, and I better than anyone can do that.  - My boss handled the situation neutrally and incredibly respectfully. I felt incredibly supported by her in that moment and like she handled it very well. I appreciated her skills as a leader in that situation and am grateful. She closed the situation graciously.  - She also graciously checked in on my workload. It was one of the moments that made me remember when Christine actually felt like a great boss when I really liked workin...
