So, I want to preface this by saying that I think I do far too few things for fun. I also want to preface this by saying that I don't think "having fun" should be a chore, so that's why I didn't say something like "daily fun thread." I think whatever definition you subscribe to for fun or enjoyment should work.

The things I define as fun usually have to do with enjoyment, not necessarily like having a great time, but just things like music, a nice cup of coffee, etc. are nice to me.

Anyway, I thought it'd be interesting to check in about what fun things we're doing either now or in the near future.

I'll start it off: today I am listening to some music I recorded yesterday.

I’m drinking a pumpkin spice coffee at the moment and did a tarot reading for myself earlier

Went to a bookstore and looked around, bought a couple books. I could live in a bookstore, they're amazing. Especially independent ones, they feel special, and there's so much awesome stuff in them

Today aside from what I posted earlier I listened to some awesome music. It wasn't awe-inspiring like sometimes it is when I listen to great music, but oh well. Still counts.

I’m also listening to music today. And drinking a pumpkin spice coffee because tis the season just spending some time looking through my drawing guidebook, has a lot of amazing art and technical stuff for drawing techniques. I can tell I’m gonna learn a lot from it and I love learning and drawing is fun for me.

Drank a ton of coffee (not too much though). Also got organized in a mental sense. I don't know those are fun things necessarily. Sometimes I have difficulty distinguishing what's fun from what's merely useful or enjoyable. Anyway...

I will be volunteering with kids today. I don't have children of my own, but I find ways to spend time with children.

Drinking some coffee and reading a thriller novel I'm really enjoying.

Might spend some time watching the show Supernatural in a little while, that's always fun for me. Either that or rewatch a season of American Horror Story.

By the way this is a great idea for a thread Wasting asparagus, thanks for making it

Listening to music and really feeling it if that makes sense. Sometimes music just makes me feel euphoric and amazing, this is one of those days I guess cause I'm listening to it right now and it's amazing.

Yesterday Mustachio snuggled up with me, she also laid on my chest while I was laying down and purred, was very relaxing. She’s getting heavy though, she used to feel like a feather when she laid on me, now she feels like a boulder. She’s a very solid cat lol she’s a year old now

Played Fetch with Zoey this morning for quite a while until I had to get ready for work. Also got a great shot of the sunrise outside of my workplace.
