So my strawberry jam didn’t set up, I got a new toy storage unit for Young Indiana and it didn’t have the screws with so I had to go back to town to get them (and then watched them open another identical unit to take the screws out of it, which helps me but compounds the problem), on the way home I stopped and got strawberries which then got crushed in the bottom of my backpack which is now coated with strawberry juice, it turns out the person I sent…

I’m tempted to also get the Captain Marvel one, but as someone on Twitter pointed out, what they really need to make is a reversible Rogue/Carol one. :) I gotta stop going into Chapters Bookstore.
