059

About The Other Day: Skipping days are bound to happen. Yesterday felt long and exponentially aggravating as the day wore on. Not exactly the mind frame I want to be in when I'm writing a note at the end of the day. It was one of those "Adversity Days," if you recall me mentioning what those are in the past. That is pretty much what a regular day has become at The Place That Pays Me when I'm in during the week. I won't go on from there as I have made it clear in the past that I don't want to really talk about that place online, let alone at all when I'm not there. I feel it necessary to "ride that line" once in a while because it IS obviously a part of my life.

Ready Player... I give up: While not the most ideal day nor the worst by far, we attempted to sit down to finish Ready Player One yesterday. The Toddler was against it from the start and made it difficult to watch despite moments of playing nicely and actually watching some of it. However, we didn't have nearly enough time to watch it. Despite this choppiness in viewing, I've been really enjoying the movie. I think I'd enjoy it more if I could see the whole thing in one sitting. Someday, again. It had me bummed out last night, wondering why we even try to get through movies. Maybe we can finish it tomorrow night.

Present Situation: I suppose this note seems super bummed out. That wasn't my intention, but that's the main takeaway from yesterday. On the bright side, I ran 4.1 miles and learned more about some changes coming up at The Place That Pays Me. There were other bright spots, but I can't remember them so well now. I had today off, some of which I'll talk about tomorrow, but I have to go back to the The Place That Pays Me tomorrow—but only for a partial day. Much like last night, I'll be spending some time with The Toddler before I go to bed, watch some Super Why, likely glance at my phone, and hear my wife talking at me.

Some days are a rocky climb.
