art gallery and chipotle
today i went to the art gallery with ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
creamerry ! we spent a long time there and i enjoyed it a lot. merry is really good company and the place was mostly empty so we got to wander around and take our time seeing everything we wanted to see. my favourite exhibit featured old furniture and tube televisions because it reminded me of my grandparents house that has now been sold. i'll never set foot in there again. there were chairs in the exhibit that we could sit on, and they were very comfortable because they were the perfect height. my feet were firmly planted on the ground but i wasn't squatting. we sat for a bit and i made a comment about how the sounds of all the televisions playing together reminded me of placid plastic duck simulator. merry agreed.
at the end we went back to the first floor and i was curious about the tables that i saw set up there. turns out it was a sensory station where there are things you can smell, touch, and taste. you can carry them around the museum because they correspond with the exhibits. we didn't do that because we already finished looking at everything, but they also had tables set up with art supplies. one table had watercolour pencil crayons, and another had model magic. we sat at the painting table and i took a pack of model magic from a different table because i wanted to mix mediums. this is what i made:
we got food at chipotle after that. i got the kids meal because i wasn't that hungry and wanted something cheap. it was very disappointing and i was upset that the guy made me the wrong thing at first (which was better than what i ordered!!) and then threw it out to make me something worse. i would have liked it more and chipotle would have lost less money if he just gave me what he made instead of starting over. the description on the menu was lacking, and i didn't expect to get what was basically just ingredients. it said it came with juice and a choice of fruit or chips, which they didn't give me until i asked for it. the fruit was just a tangerine. the audacity to charge me more than $8 for what i got! they charged merry twice that for a burrito and a bottle of water, so i'm glad i chose the kids meal instead of something from the regular menu. it was higher value than a side like chips and dip and it did what it needed to do: kept me from being hungry. i have a sensitive stomach and i'm glad that i had no problems with that meal. it's hit or miss with burritos sometimes.
overall i had a really good day! i haven't left my house much this week and i was very happy to see merry. we don't see each other often and we always have lots to talk about. i really enjoy merry's company because i feel respected by them and they provide me with a unique perspective on a lot of things. i'm also looking forwards to seeing my other friends on tuesday! i'm throwing a party to celebrate scaramouche becoming playable, and the fact that both my friends have him (i'm saving for yelan and c1 hu tao so i'm skipping scara)! i'm making cupcakes and cocktails and we're all gonna bring our laptops so we can farm scara's artifacts--it works out, since i need the other set from the same domain for my hyperbloom raiden shogun.
