Peaceful Day

 Today is beautiful! The past 2 days have been sunny and in the 50s and 60s. I have been lucky to get the past 2 days off of work, the result of a cancelled trip to New York City, so I have been able to enjoy these days to the fullest. 

 A friend and I went to a retro video games store and I found Brain Age 2 on the DS for $3! Can you believe that? What a steal. Unfortunately my brain seems to be a little slow.

I am quite stupid

 That's ok! In retaliation I found a peer reviewed article claiming that these kinds of brain games actually have no greater effect on your brain than doing a crossword in the morning.

 At the same shop I also saw this Pikachu Pokemon card where he's surfing on this adorable surfboard.

 I think the price is a little outlandish but it is a really cute card so maybe it's me who's out of touch.

 I also went for a few bike rides outside! It's beautiful. The first few rides after being cooped up indoors all winter are actual magic. I felt like I could breathe again. The roads are still messy and there are still a lot of spots where melting snow keeps the road perpetually wet and gross but it doesn't matter because it's sunny and warm and I can comfortably be outside again. 

 Finally, after months of nothing, I found the last fossil I needed for Blathers.

 Thank you Blathers.

 I hope you are having a nice day, I will leave you with a photo of my cat helping me with the Bell Tree post from a few days ago.
