Through a perhaps not-so-unfortunate turn of events, I was unable and/or unwilling to make my daily posts.

The past three nights I have spent with my newly minted girlfriend, and the night before that I was so terribly exhausted, which combined with a late night and an early morning to realize me simply forgetting to post.

Though, to be fair, I don't have that much to report, I suppose. I've been living life and feeling nice. Things are to come, and things are to happen, but as things go and as things are, things are fine. I feel I'm making progress at work and that I'm well-liked, and I think my relationship is good. We were great friends already and that's remained true, so that's great.

I plan to finally spend at least 1 hour reading tomorrow. Finally, finally. Besides that, not much more.

I feel like life has been taking my time away. This feels like a weird thing to say, of course, because life is what you spend time on. Or rather, time is spent regardless of what you do, but the best thing you could possibly spend it on is life. Experiencing things, doing things, learning things, being, living. That's what good time looks like. Still, I just feel like I'm so much. I'm so much. There's so much I want to do, so much I haven't done, things I have prioritized or left to rot, habits I've built and let die, and I hate that. I want to keep things up, but it's so hard. It's so hard to spend my time wisely, so exhausting to keep going.

I really need to find a way to relax and have fun, meaning, having fun by relaxing instead of by doing or acting, or engaging. I need to just chill. Sit and enjoy the view or something. Not go for a walk but just sit on a rock, sort of.

It's hard to balance everything...

I wore jeans. All the days I haven't posted I wore jeans, I think. Maybe one of those days I wore my black trousers, I don't know!

I feel good, overall. I think. I'm tired. I feel a little overextended, actually. I need to pull back and slow down. I'm having fun, but I suppose there really is such a thing as too much of a good thing.
