S2 E34 & 35: untitled

 Ok so like, last week was a disappointing week and spent most of it carrying a funk around. Put off the entry so long that now it’s the following Monday and it makes all of the sense in the world to get back on track. So yeah, here we go again.

I don’t benefit from the combined entries, because now i have to walk back through my calendars and figure out what happened that was significant enough to remember. I will say that two weeks ago is infinitely easier to remember because my father in law was here that week. We purposefully didn’t do a damn thing all week (i cheated on Tuesday to do my PMP class) and rewatched all of the mission impossible movies. Great time, 10/10 would recommend to anyone with a week to spare. Capped off that week with my 6 week post op appt where I was freed from the brace and it was just the coolest week of the summer. Legitimately, i got lucky with my in-laws because they kind of rock. Oh and I got a LOTR tattoo, that was fun. DOUBLE OH, my BJJ gym (owner) sent me a card cuz i haven’t been around. Me, just a little ole noob, is missed and they are thinking about me?! 😬🥲💕 honestly everyone in that building deserves niceness awards. What a wholesome, positive community.

Last week, in comparison, was really just kinda…off. Started on Monday with PT, we started ramping up the difficulty and because of the months of inactivity I did NOOOOOOT bounce back well. I was sore as shit all week, not to mention having the frozen knee every morning. Couple physical discomfort with being alone for the first time in months and realizing the study/job hunt has to start again…shit packed a wollup. I felt ill, couldn’t find any motivation, plus it was all rainy and shit all week. Legit just a booger of a week. Truly miserable experience.

The thing about it is that that booger of a week eventually ended. Watched some college football on Saturday and magic with the homies last night and today after the gym. It’s hard to say when i stopped feeling poopy, but i can tell you that it felt like it was never going to end. Ironic. It just goes to show that the darkest of times only appear that way from the inside…there’s a lot of resilience to be had in knowing that storms don’t last. The cool thing too is that they can be manipulated and broken by little doses of positivity. And if you could experience and learn all of those concepts, then adding positivity to the lives and times of anyone you come into contact with becomes second nature.

TL;DR

Don’t be an asshole.

Ok last two things. This first is I’ve been praying more recently than I used to, mostly including recitals like the rosary…yall telling me that Jesus descended into hell when he died? What’d he do down there for three days? Last one: i saw a post from an internet funny man that was not funny. One of his buddies punched his own ticket and he was supporting the family. When the internet funny man is describing what’s left behind…kinda puts some things in my past in perspective. Wowzers.
