10 days or so
Jul. 22nd, 2020 12:47 pmLately, it's begin to seem like a good time to follow up on some over-a-decade-old mysteries at work. I have a drink I need to have with someone and I'm just waiting for them to leave Zillian. Before that, though, I decided to have virtual coffee last Friday with a guy who (I was told) asked to have me fired in about 2008. ( As one does. )
The condo, continuing to adapt, has sprouted a standing desk for the bug; our dining room table is back to being a table.
My spine, continuing to adapt, did its first cheststand since about 2013.
Outer Wilds is taking me a while (~80 hours so far) but is nice as a project. I almost gave up over the weekend after failing many times at a particular section that required lots of dexterity, but nice people on Reddit assured me that it was probably the hardest part, and I got through. There's always a balance, for me, between having enough projects to feel that life is rich without overwhelming myself and feeling panicky... right now I've got this game and a quilt and my rather neglected circus choreo. It's a little bit more than I like, and I'm hoping to finish up the game soon.
Regarding circus, I went to the school on Monday for an in-person but distanced handstand private lesson and it was really, really nice. The teacher just brought a board and a panel mat outside and we worked on basics, and I did maybe my best ever transitions between tuck and straight, and I felt hopeful.
Still feeling a lot of uncertainty around virus-foo and work-foo, and I'm on the edge of a stress headache, at some point in the day, more days than I'd like. Still, some things are OK.
