Top Three
- Work has been insanely stressful lately. We’re coming to the end of our time with the summer students and we’re pushing really hard on projects. Which means I’m trying to juggle a million “high importance” jobs. So thank goodness next week is a short week!
- My fiancé just picked up a new game for the Nintendo Switch and we’re officially obsessed. We’re playing Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 and it’s the exact kind of game I like. Very little thought/strategy, lots of button mashing haha. We’ve had so much fun playing this weekend!
- We’re finally seeing the new Spiderman movie! Our schedules have been absolutely bananas. So when we realized we had a free weekend we had to make it happen. I can’t wait to see it tonight!!
How was your week?!

I’m curious to your thoughts on wilder girls!

I actually posted a review for it! I gave it 3 stars but it’s definitely one of those stories that some people will love or hate. It’s extremely character driven and open ended so just know going in that things aren’t necessarily explained. But the writing and story themes were absolutely amazing. I think Rory Power is going to be a big name in the future.
