Good:

• Steady improvement at the social dance due to work and practice elsewhere. I'm so happy that I can just start talking to a complete stranger and feel reasonably comfortable now. I offered some people my parking vouchers on Thursday because mine were expiring, and showed them how to use the machine, and it wasn't super awkward.

• Going to the gym. It's been longer than a year now, and I'm fairly consistently going 3 times a week. I'm hoping to do more while I'm there as I've hit a bit of a slump, but the absolute hardest part is making myself go.

• My ladyfriend. I won't go into details exactly, but.. She's just the absolute best.

Bad:

• Work is a real drag sometimes. It becomes difficult to deal with the stress sometimes, which makes it challenging to avoid quitting, but I manage. Having money is pretty great, so it's not really so bad at all, all things considered.

Ugly:

• Anger. I've had a few real bad moments with my trying out PvP games again this year, and also at work, but fortunately I have the support of my ladyfriend, other friends and other people in my life so that it's very manageable.
