The day started out a little rough but ended really really good! I drove home today and before leaving I was going to donate plasma and there was a bonus on your second donation since it's Thanksgiving week. But I ended up eating breakfast way late because I'd gone to tutoring early only to discover they were actually closed so I figured I would just wait ten minutes at the MC and then get Chick-Fil-A when they opened at ten but then I realized a little too late that they weren't actually going to open today so I booked it to TacoTime and got some crisp meat burritos and literally inhaled them on my way to the plasma center. Then I couldn't even donate because my protein levels were low so that wasn't ideal. Once I finally started driving I accidentally took a wrong turn that forced me to drive in the opposite direction for about twenty minutes before I could turn around and drive another twenty minutes back to where I was supposed to turn and there was just a series of unfortunate events (in all reality it was actually just a series of minor inconveniences that I was not in the mood to deal with.)
The good part though: I met up with Douglas Proctor again! We planned to meet up but didn't have a specific place yet and my internet connection has been having issues lately and so when I tried to message him on messenger it wouldn't go through and I ended up having to call my dad ask him to sign into my facebook and send him a message explaining that it wasn't working and that I'd actually need him to text me. I had my dad send my phone number over to him and it ended up all working out well.
We met up at a park but I had accidentally parked on the opposite side so he just walked across the park to meet up with me. We didn't have much of a plan in place. He said he had originally planned to bring a frisbee but he left it in Logan and that worked out because the only shoes I had were heels. He threw out some ideas and one of them was the Living Planet Aquarium and I got really excited since I hadn't been there for a while so we went!
This is turning out to be a long post but it was a long day so we're just gonna go with it. Anyway, we drove in my car to the aquarium, which wasn't too far from the park. And holy cow I had so much fun. There was only an hour and a half until they closed so we semi sped walked through each of the areas and made jokes about fish being named "least chub" and I commented on how mesmerizing jellyfish were. We barely made it through everything before they closed. Afterwards I was just going to drop him off at his car but before we got there he asked if I wanted to go an get some pretzel bites at the mall nearby. So we diverted to the mall and got some pretzel bites and drove back to the park and ate them and talked in my car for another little while until finally he had to go if he wanted to have enough time to finish his homework. I had a lot of fun and it was definitely a great way to end off a day that had started not the greatest.
