I can start. I spent a few days with friends. We didn’t do anything that special but it’s good to catch up and soak up some positivity from them.

    Had a relatively quick morning with my toddler on Monday, so decided I could afford to be 10 minutes late getting into work and had a special breakfast with her at a new little bakery/deli/breakfast-and-lunch spot that opened up nearby.

    No idea if she’ll remember it, but I know I cherish little moments like that from my childhood so I do what I can to make them for her.

    One of the things I didn’t really expect with having a kid is that even without going out of my way to make special memories there are small wonderful moments almost every day.

    I’m a happily divorced dad. Had a lovely evening with my teenage daughter yesterday. We played cards, chess and some other cards game while drinking tea and chatting a lot. She won each game fair and square. After that great time I told her how much I value these moments, and she answered in the same way.

    Well. I got sick on Saturday. Stomach bug.

    The best thing that’s happened to me this week is I was able to eat a few saltines last night.

    My wife and I had been trying for a child. Then she left me 2 weeks ago.
    The best thing that happened to me this week was finding out she’s not pregnant.
    Also, instead of despair or grief over the separation, literally all I feel is relief.

    My girlfriend has started her second chemo meditation this week and the side effects are so much more manageable than the first’s. We could even go for a hike on day two, which is way more than I had hoped for.

    The best thing… depending on how I ask I guess. Either the day trip I made to two nearby towns (one of which is a rather well-known tourist spot) on Sunday despite the rainy weather, or the fact that weather rose to 20 C yesterday & was sunny so I made a nice stroll in the city

    Today is the 12th anniversary of the day I was physically disabled by a fuckwit driver while I was riding a bicycle to work. It is the first year in several where I do not feel existential or super depressed. I have plenty of reason to be, but all of it is deflected at the moment.

    Deadlifted 150 kgs (330 lbs) for reps this morning. Not a huge amount, but still nice. Other than that, a pretty uneventful week so far. Spring is just around the corner.

    Hung out with friends, and got out of a bad group project for a class and now I get to do my own project, which will be a lot of work but it’s gonna be fun and its better than having to keep working with the team

    I ate a slice of $2.50 birthday cake. My life is really terrible right now.

    Edit: birthday cake is cake with sprinkles baked into it. It’s not my birthday.

    I finally got paid for a big job I did and now my new computer that I’ve been looking at for the past year is on its way to me. And, I have enough to get some Asian food for dinner which I like.
