201903 Dear Diary

By piousbox on 2019-03-21

My stuff is disappearing. With the disappearance of Tinder, I'm less enthusiastic about a whole lot of things. And I know it's a marginal case: I only need in in Latin America. But still, I'm taking a lot of steps to re-gain that social network. I'm happy because my laptop functions well, my fingers work well, I can see, I'm breathing well and my heart isn't failing. And I'll be drinking a lot of banana shakes, so maybe my potassium will be good as well. And my finger is actually improving. And I sleep relatively well. I'm only distracted b/c I need my girl with me.
