Wendy Li

👀 2020 vs 2018

Hey Picador, I'd like a word with you

Me: I baked chunky chocolate chip cookies! Friend: What the what the WHAT??? What is this? And where is Wendy?

Photos from peachytales.com/, I'm going to crack and try cooking dal puri one of these days, won't I?

I needed the reminder, but this is absolutely the stance I now take at work 😆 No wonder she's one of my touchstones ❤

I think we can dispense with the "don't shoot facing the sun" for Londoners, that orb is too rare...

Would love it if Google maps had a "non stabbitiest of the stabbity roads" option of how to get somewhere

My corner of SE London took its "green and leafy" reputation to heart by setting up a walk-in vaccination clinic in Mayow Park. Huge queue from 9am, but they confirmed Pfizer 2nd jab available after 3-4 weeks, so ✔💉💉

When Google photos reminds you of how it was in 2018 vs 2021... I have sworn off most calatheas, peperomias, ivies, and I don't think I like succulents nor cacti

*looking at details for theatres & cinemas opening again in London* J: I LOVE THAT THERE WILL BE A SPACE ON EITHER SIDE OF US Me: THAT'S WHAT I ALWAYS WANTED The pandemic, bringing anti social introverted aesthetic into practice ❤

Lockdown work mode has pretty much been no motivation in the morning, followed by a boost in the afternoon/evening. Result? Sending emails at 10pm to external parties with delayed delivery so as not to come across completely unhinged 🙃

Highlight of today was receiving this book of illustrations from @chrisriddell50, covering 2020. So apt to close the year with Chekhov 👌🏻

Buy moulds to make round ice cubes. End up with ice boobs.

When @WorkshopCoffee battles for space among my plants 🌱☘☕🌿🌱

You can tell I went through both Brexit and the 2016 US election when my email to US colleagues today says "stay safe whatever the election result is!" 😖

My excuse for dying so much in this game? My aim doesn't seem to be to leave hell... (This non gamer/Greek myths fan is slightly obsessed with Hades after playing it last night)

Me: Bought 2 more books, this is the ratio of books bought during lockdown to the ones I've read. I need to stop reading on my kindle! Friend: You seem to have made a decision only to read books with some sort of animal emerging from the left hand side of the cover 👀

..... bold choice in SE London, did someone get lost on their way westward?

Pre lockdown: I will finally have time to read! Realising we're in August: 😑

In my latest "wtf brain" moment, I tried to say that "also Daniel and Vlad" were on the call I organised, and my brain merged that to "also Dad" 🤦🏻‍♀️
