Old Friend Of Mine Went With Me To The River Walk This Morning. It Was Nice. Refreshing From Being Miserable

Old friend of mine went with me to the river walk this morning. It was nice. Refreshing from being miserable this past week. Though I am utterly exhausted. I couldn't fall asleep until 9:15am ..... and woke up for the river walk at 9:55am 🫠🫠🫠🫠

I feel most at home in the air. But I must say, I'm quite comfortable in water. It's so soothing. Whether for recreation or health. It just.... it quiets my mind/worries. I exist in a weird mental state, (good weird) and my body isnt (usually) in pain when I'm in it.

We caught up about life stuff. He talked a lot about his DND stuff (which I thoroughly enjoy listening to) and then mostly stayed quiet. Some chatter here and there. But it was nice just existing for a while with an old friend.

I've known him since.... maybe 13/14? Half my life. Good guy. Retired early from the marines due to injury? His girl he's been going steady with's birthday is the day before his, and his is the day before mine. Just a tidbit I find funny. They moved in together, big things! He's really happy. She has brought an era of peace to his life that honestly he really needed and deserves and I'm so happy he has that.

Good things good things. I feel quite content myself. Whenever we hang out (few and far between because, life) my brain speedruns from when we met fresh into middle school until present day. Just, all the life that has happened between then and now. Kind of a nostalgic and sentimental brain thing that happens with him and a select few people from my earlier years.

Love it. Good day frens.

I mean I put mine in a ziploc when I'm really concerned but tbh sometimes I'm picky about music/individual songs I want to vibe to or an audio book of something while I shower. (Once it's outside the curtain I simply cannot hear the words)

I even have a phone holder clipped to my shower bar to keep it secure. 🤷‍♀️

I do have depression though ngl

hold on hold on wait a minute

The AC itself is fixed!!

... but our thermostat is also shot and needs replacing. Thankfully that's relatively easy compared to the motor.

Finally my arctic habitat is returning to normal.

The meds did help. Nausea was relieved and same with the cramping. Though I really wish I had taken my next dose sooner. The cramping is coming back and now I have a buffer period where the pain exists and the meds haven't kicked in yet. But. Hopefully it'll bring relief again here soon.

I remember

Please tell me you guys remember this

oh..

yo does anyone else feel CONSTANTLY guilty? like you’ve always done something wrong but you don’t know what it is?
