I unfortunately didn't have time to do a Friday Five yesterday, but I have a tiny bit of time before my Crohn's infusion this morning, so let's try a Saturday Six!

| New gifted book for Baby K |
What I've been up to this week:
- STILL still being sick, kinda. My cough is mostly gone—or was, until today, when some remnants popped up—but my ear still feels funky, I think the ear infection didn't completely heal. I booked an appt. with my doctor for Monday afternoon, so hopefully she can check it out then.
- Going to the movie theater! My work now has Summer Half-Day Fridays, so I try to log off at 1pm or so, although yesterday was more like 2pm. On T-Mobile Tuesdays this week, there was a deal for $5 to see Masters of the Universe, which I was already thinking of seeing in regular format, so I went to see it in PREMIUM format aka Super Emax ($15 regularly). I did unfortunately fall asleep during it, so no *official* rating from me, but unofficially, I'd give it 4/5 stars—it had a lot of action and a lot of comedy in it, and now I want to check out more of the He-Man shows and movies.
- Binging Off Campus. As a fan of Heated Rivalry, I had been hearing a LOT about Off Campus, on Prime, and I finally got to check it out (and ended up binging it this week). It was a ton of fun and I want to read the book now too (but there's like 300 holds on the digital edition from my library, ha, so may have to fork over the $9 to get the Kindle edition on Amazon). They're already shooting season two, also, which will focus on one of the couples that was in the first TV show/book.
- Finishing a book! Rare for me these days, haha, but after seeing Remarkably Bright Creatures on Netflix, I wanted to read the book, and Hoopla had it. The book was very good but a lot different than the movie; I'd give the book maybe 3.5/5 or 4/5 but I'd give the movie 4.5/5 or 5/5, Sally Field was fantastic in it.
- Watching other TV shows. I started one called Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed, on AppleTV, which is really good, and I also finished Bad Mistakes, which had a crazy twist I didn't see coming, and Your Friends and Neighbors, which has been renewed for season three and also had a crazy last few episodes. I rewatched A Good Girl's Guide to Murder on Netflix (season one) and then started season two ... it took me a few episodes to actually like season two but it's okay now, although I preferred season one.
- Taking the baby out by myself for a social gathering. This was her first social gathering that wasn't family, and my husband was still sick last weekend, so I brought her over to a friend's house for her birthday party. It was a little overwhelming with all of the stuff I had to bring (diaper bag with formula + diapers, etc., plus Baby K's chair to sit in, a changing pad, etc.) but most of the attendees at the party were people I knew from college, and they all helped, even with feeding (bottle feeding) Baby K, which was really nice of them.
