Thursday 28. 

I woke up at a good time. 9am, sat at the desk by 9:45. I had a full day of work. I did a lot of catch up. 

A lot of transphobia stuff happened this week too. I didn't get to finish work before 9pm. I didn't get a chance to go to the gym. 

I feel both that I got a lot done and yet I got nothing done. Work work isn't something I feel a sense of achievement with. It's a thing separate to me. But when I work to work out, or do some reading or academic stuff I feel I'm in my element. 

I snacked between 10pm and midnight. It's 1am now. I could probably sleep if I shut my eyes.

On rational reflection I got stuff done.

On emotional reflection I feel there's so much undone. 

 More things ticked off of the bucket list

• Go to COmicon
• (duplicate) comicon
• 20,000 steps 
• 25,000 steps
• Go on a trip with Ant
• Play a tabletop game

I must say I seriously enjoyed playing Dungeons & Dragons. I really need to find more GMs who will letm e play with them. 

Good things

 

The past two weeks previous have been excellent. 

Week before last I went to an exhibition where someone from work had some work displayed. I got my hair done. On the friday I did some shopping and got some epic clothes from uniqlo and some epic shoes from Clarks. I got these boots that have everything. Ankle high, well a bit higher, fur lined, size 10.5, brogues and its just bloody good. 

On the saturday week before last was my best friend's civil partnership. he met someone during lockdown and now they are married. I am so happy for them and it was a moment of pure joy. I loved the outfit I had on the day too. Sunday I had to recover. I was exhausted. I still didn't recover days after. I had to just rush and work and get things done with more work catching up. 

That gets to last week: 

Thursday last week I did some final prep for comicon. I was prepping my outfit. I went to see the film Dune. That was amazing. I then went for a mad rush to catch up on about 15 days of outstanding logging and I'm still not done yet. but I got enough done by 4am Friday. I sletp for 2 hours and woke up. I had an early breakfast on friday morning. I went to east london to meet my friend and then we did comicon. I walked 32,000 steps. I've never walked that amount before. I note that I've just done 1000 steps at 1pm on a Monday. I had some stresses at ccomicon. I didn't like the crowds. I didn't like the slow moving people. I didn't like losing my waistcoat (less said about that the better...this is a happy post). I finished comicon, said my adieu to my friend and I went to a pub with some work people. We ended up in a gay karaoke night and that was a lot of fun. Then I got home late.I missed a train but I was okay in the train platform just reeling from the day.Exhausted as hell.

Saturday I did day 2. I didn't last as long. I got home earlier, I had a lot of fun. I walked about 12,000steps maybe? not quite 30,000 steps. I had some weight loss which I put down to the steps and loss of water. I was carrying a lot of stuff over the weekend. Then I got the flu in the evening. I couldn't go on Sunday. I had planned since Friday to meet someone I was at the drinks with to meet at MCM on Sunday but I apologised about having the flu. She ended up not going. I'm sad about that as my flu denied us both the ability to go to MCM. So Sunday I spent the day resting and that comes on to today.

I'm doing a lot of catch up. I'm doing catch up from things that go back to when I had the Thursday and Friday off on the week of the wedding. It's a nice feeling. I feel like the greatness of 2019 continues now.
