Today was the perfect start to a three-day birthday / Memorial day weekend. Went downtown for a photo walk with Heavenly (the results of which are being posted right now), the first time we’ve gone for one together.

So tired this morning. Having trouble keeping awake at work. Heavenly’s been working inventory at her job this whole weekend, and then again tonight and tomorrow, which for these two weekdays means I won’t be able to see her at all unless I stay awake till 2am.
