There's that thought again
Dec. 28th, 2023 10:57 pmMy slow little pocket of time hasn't felt slow. I forget whether I told y'all that the bug and I are reading the classic ACT book The Happiness Trap, but we are, and tonight I managed to implement something from there. Like this: oh, I'm again noticing that thought about not having been productive enough.
Yes, voice in head, perhaps. But I had a delightful drinks-and-fries friend-date with my pen pal, a long evening at Blue-Green Street with the bug and all the squirrel family watching Oppenheimer together, a brief checkin with another coworker who had been feeling bad, a good run of taking down old artwork (complete with wall washing and spackling) to make way for new, a few good workouts, and some cooking.
Oh and also:
No matter. It's time to wrap it all up; while I am indeed taking my work laptop with me for the plane, we're heading to see friends in Berkeley for New Year's Eve. As an extra bonus, I'm going to get to see Birdie on Saturday night. The squirrel gave me some art supplies and I promised to do some sketching and send pictures -- goodness, what a sweet creature it is.

Oh and also:
- Got my tattoo touched up
- Bought a pair of earrings I almost loved, brought them home and reconfigured them with pliers; now I truly love them and also feel clever
- Wrote my retrospective for 2023, and made a solid start on my annual video of training clips
- Started my teeth whitening at last
