Bedtime Thoughts…

Now I lay me down to sleep…

It’s four in the morning and I have to be up relatively early to pick up my friend Teddy from the airport in Detroit. I’m going to bed pretty late tonight because I was working late. I have a lot of goals and plans for the future. So it is imperative that I work as hard as I can to achieve those goals, in the long run it will be worth it for me and my future.

Routine comes with its fair share of compromises, mostly my time- but I did say that I would try to write something daily.

The last few months have been amazing, as far as my mental health goes. I can’t say that I’ve been in this high of spirits in years.

I’m a little bit scared that it might be fleeting, I certainly hope not. It’s not as though I’ve had the best single moments or experiences of my life over the last few weeks or months, but it feels like everything has been consistently OK. And it’s been a long time since everything has been consistently OK.

Writing every day is one of the things I do to keep my brain working and consistent. It forces me to research things and think critically. It forces me to analyze my own opinions.

Some of the other things I’d like to include in my routine is exercising, and making some kind of funny fursuit video every day.

I have so many ideas for videos, I don’t even know where to begin. Often times the ideas I have feel too big for me to actually work on.

I’d have to learn a bunch of new things to actually do it, and I might not have enough time for that.

Working out sounds easy, but I’m embarrassed by the idea of not knowing exactly what I need to do. I’d really like some guidance…

I’ve gotta be up early to pick up Teddy from the airport, I’ve gotta be up early to cut some branches off trees and clean my roof. i’ve got to be up early to hire an exterminator for this ant infestation in my attic.

I’ve gotta be up early to take care of this house, take care of my friends, and take care of myself.

Maybe tomorrow I’ll write something more thoughtful.

thanks everyone
