  • I went to the TS Bookshop and bought a book and a crystal and some incense.
  • Walking to work, I felt like listening to Rise Like a Phoenix but I couldn't be bothered looking it up. So I just fast-forwarded it to the next song on my random playlist and it came up!! Then immediately afterwards, Reincarnation played, to give me the motivation to get up the hill.
  • Went to the Cat Cafe! So relaxing and adorable.
  • I got some alone time in.
  • omgz I just saw a real-life Mori Girl -- in my town! -- right there on the street. She was wearing fur earmuffs, and had long blonde hair, and she had a brown shawl (poncho?) and a woven woollen patterned skirt. I only saw her for a second, so I didn't get the rest of the details. She was leaning nonchalantly against the wall next to the 7-eleven. I contemplated saying something to her as I went into the sushi bar to get my rice paper rolls, but by the time I came out, she was gone.
