What’s Worth Remembering: April 2024

  1. Been feeling off the past few days. I knew my depression was hitting hard when there was this moment today where I was tremendously sad while walking back to my apartment with a whole ass pizza in my hand
  2. Was really good to meet up with Chad and Alex. Good people and good times all around
  3. Tried taking Caltrain to work today and it wasn’t bad! The best part was stopping by Taco Bell for a Crunch Wrap Supreme on the way back 🤤
  4. Was talking to a friend on the phone and neither of us could remember the last time we chatted on the phone, heh
  5. Heard some good news from the landlord so I decided to push my luck by eating the chicken tender I left in the oven… from a while ago. Will see if this risky move is worth it
  6. Finally able to spend a peaceful day with Ian after two weeks. Impromptu (and awesome) movie night with Exhuma!
  7. Been putting off yoga but it was so nourishing to finally be able to stretch my body!
  8. Life is so, so fragile, it’s so important to cherish those around you.
  9. At lunch I thought about quiet Kevin. I wonder how he’s doing
  10. I unblocked so many things at work today. Part of me wonders if it’s because my boss is out
  11. A good thing about going on walks is how random memories from long ago would come up and accompany you for a bit
  12. It’s good to see Ian make jokes and be his silly self
  13. it’s so, so nice to catch up with Becky and Steven, over food and board games no less
  14. So glad to finally be able to go for a run now that the rain is done (for now)
  15. Sometimes I’m reminded of how an old coworker would ask “Do you not care?”, and how I now also think that during meetings where I’m clearly just talking to myself (and into blank boxes) the entire time
  16. Got some major compliments from a couple managers, not that I was fishing for them or anything! (But also maybe I was 🎣)
  17. Chris wanted to talk to that pretty girl two tables over, and I was as useful as a brick
  18. Of course things are turned upside down. This week feels like 20 days long, yet again
  19. I was stressed to the brim today — Ian was kind and patience and I did what I had to do to survive
  20. Finally able to go to IKEA and wrapped up some errands around the apartment. So nice to finally be able to have coffee out on the balcony!
  21. I know it’s sacrilege, but I really enjoy Saag Paneer with tortilla chips
  22. My life is so different nowadays that it’s especially nice to get email updates from an old friend
  23. I’m such a people pleaser that it genuinely bothers me when people don’t see eye to eye. “It’s like Survivor”, I said to a manager
  24. How did all this work just fell on me? All my regular stuff had to move aside, no bueno man
  25. Glad the presentation went well today! Felt so relieved immediately afterwards
  26. Fridays aren’t meant to be this busy, yet here we are
  27. We had a really nice hike on the Tafoni trail and saw the massive sandstone
  28. it was good to have soy beans sautéed clams from my dad again. I can’t remember the last time he made that
  29. Even though my day was filled with meetings, I’m glad to see Ian is happy doing his own thing and enjoying his day
  30. Had some extra time so I walked to the caffe macs kinda far away. Soup got cold but the walk was great
