[392] and I got more juice than Picasso got paint

A chill Friday! We are fully into gray, rainy September days, so while I mourn the passing of the sunshine, I am also treasuring the current vibes before they inevitably give way to snow and sadness.

Spent most of the day watching wrestling and knocking out a few nagging chores. There are still so, so many more I need to hit, but that's what the weekend is for. As long as I get some laundry started and do my nails tonight, I'm calling it a win.

Time for a run! As soon as this burrito isn't sitting quite so heavy inside of me, anyway.
