Ice Skating (and I didn't fall)
This post was written in enI went ice skating for the first time in years. The last time I ice skated was back in Omaha. It's something I don't do often but I've been having an itch the last few years. Living in Downtown San Francisco, there's an Ice skating rink at Union Square that I pass by all the time. It's been one of those activities that I tell myself, "I need to do this before they tear it down!" I keep pondering everytime I pass it, then I forget because I have to get to my destination.
This weekend, I finally did it! I went with my friend Tim, who was visiting for the weekend. Why not do something interesting with a friend? I was very happy that I went with my friend!
My biggest achievement is I didn't fall on my face! I kept my balance.
The lesson I learned from this is to simply do something and not ponder it too late! I need to get into the habit of doing activities on my own (and make them into artist dates). I just got to do things and enjoy time with myself.
Sick on Thanksgiving
This post was written in enI'm lying on my couch in my San Francisco apartment trying to recover from the sickness I acquired. The last few days have been rough! Being sick is something I don't like to experience but here we are.
Since I couldn't return to Nebraska this year for the holiday, I had plans to do a Friendsgiving.
Everyone is enjoying themselves and having a grand old time.
It would be selfish of me to show up sick, and miserable, and risk getting people sick. I know people understand, but I don't like to disappoint others.
I am grateful for a few things:
My Parents
Even though I couldn't return to Nebraska, I am very grateful for them. They have been very supportive in various aspects of life. I know they miss me and they wish I could move back. They love how I've branched off to live in a different place. I miss them a lot but I will see them soon!
My Friend Evan
My friend Evan was so kind enough for me to bring me crackers as I was struggling yesterday. He's a keeper! Those crackers brought me back to life. I'm so appreciative to have Evan in my life.
Evan even walked me to McDonald's this morning making sure I got a light meal. McDonald's was closed. :( I just wanted two burritos.
My Friends Sarah and Mike
My friend Sarah has been amazing over the years especially when I moved to Sacramento. She has helped me so much in getting used to California living and of course, having to put up with my shenanigans.
Mike is a great friend as well. He helped me guide my career to where it is now! He is a great person to have an amazing conversation with. I love talking about ethics with him and anything related to tech.
I miss them both!
Alone Time
Being sick allowed me to do nothing, which is not bad. I ordered some soup in hopes of making me feel better sooner. I probably should watch a movie instead of doom-scrolling. I deserve to enjoy myself a little. Maybe I will code and work on my website and working on an API.
Homebrew Website Club
I am grateful I hung out remotely at Homebrew Website Club yesterday! I didn't participate as much as I wanted but I still made the effort to attend. There was some great conversation happening! Shoutout to Tracy and Angelo for hanging out and tucking me in virtually when I finally crashed.
Happy Holidays.
