I just finished my work out. That always feels good. I like being able to do the things I do.
I have the day off. Most of it has been spent cleaning my apartment. I have an apartment, a space to call my own. I also spent some time on the phone with my landlord today, which means it looks like despite recent financial troubles I'm going to be able to keep my apartment.
I'm out for a walk in a few moments. Then I'll be back home to cook dinner and after that it's off to class. Class isn't entirely fun, but I've got a date with a nice young woman after class. I'm very much looking forward to that.
Sometimes it's hard to find the good. I know that just as well as anyone. But I've come through it all so far; I've had some pretty rough times in my day and one of the things I've learned is that everything is always in passing. There's always a way through.
