currently beginning the lengthy commitment of reading Ian Kershaw’s double-volume biography of Hitler

I graduated, so I’ve been decompressing and occasionally looking at jobs when I see something on an app. Hoping my screwed up college time perception from gets fixed soon—I hate knowing what’s on my schedule but not knowing what today is. It’s so discombobulating.
Got another interview coming up. Feel mixed on returning to family, but it’s not like my college town was gonna be my forever home… It hurts to close a chapter. I’m worried I’ll return to old bad habits when I live with fam. Trying to remind myself that I’m different now.
Did well at a casual pinball league night last night, working on a lot of self hosting stuff, and trying to find time to design some posters to put up around town for a socialist U.S. Senate candidate and connect with more like-minded folks in my area.
Pollen season has started so trying to navigate that while enjoying the weather. Hoping to get out for some exercise this weekend.
Fourteen years ago today I went on the first date with my now wife, I’d say it’s going pretty well.
Boo to code enforcement waiting to tell us and our contractor that we need to file an appeal for a variance to move forward with our renovation though.
You know what the main difference between a girlfriend and a wife is? You remember the precise day you met your wife with the sizzling sear of a brand.
(I’d not brand my wife until later.)
It appears I’m getting a new fridge. Which is helpful when trying not to spend $15 per day on food. Look at me, squandering my inheritance on dentures and avoiding paying for prepared food.
Going pretty good. Played Pokepia all day, that was nice and I’m off. Been working a lot. Usual stuff.
I’m writing more and reading more, yet horrified of what to do with the later half of my life. So mixed bag mentally this week. However, I’m back with a great personal trainer and gym, mountain biking again (oh wow it’s been a hot minute), and enjoying cedar trees and mountains. So pretty happy with the physical fitness in these surroundings. I do miss cycling everywhere though…doing it in truck-land is a bit harrowing.
I’m still working on this idea that I can directly bite into things with my front teeth. You never forget how to ride a bicycle, but you can forget how to chew because of pain. And then, once I was bedentured, I hung out with a friend who took three bags of trash away. And that was just Monday.
Stressful. Had a really minor car accident, door caved in on my baby. My sweet baby hatchback. Work stress. Family medical stuff. Ai ai ai.
Hang in there. Things will get better.
