Barre with Suzy and Nathaniel at Town Hall Lanes



March 22, 2023: Well today I started off the day by going to barre class with Debbie again. What I did this morning was I decided to use the fanny pack to keep my stuff with me. I like it, having done one day with it. I had my pills at 7:15 this morning with 5 crackers with cheese, which Papa recommended doing so I could take my night ones a bit earlier in the night. Early on in the morning I also made plans with Bella Rolland. We’re gonna go to Chimborazo together and catch up on May 1st at 12pm. I also got on of my new antidepressants delivered this morning. I left for the gym at 9:20 and listened to Liam’s 4 AKM playlist on the way there. When I got to the gym I talked to the receptionist person Hannah a bit. She said that she actually just got back from a week long vacation in the Florida Keys, and I told her about my upcoming trip to Vero Beach. The office lady Amy Hodge also commented on how my blush was beautiful today, which is cool because I specifically put it on this morning. Totally didn’t take a photo with Debbie. I did take one with a girl who was also in my class named Suzy though. It’s Suzy or Susie, didn’t spell it. I told her a ton. I even told her about the cancer, and she said she also trains with Will, who I said was exactly my age. I told her how I’d already taken two pics with Debbie, and I told her about the accident and how this project is how I remember things. Also talking to some other girls in the class I learned that Wednesday mornings at 9am there’s a pilates class in the same room as the yoga class. What I did after the class was I went to the hot tub for a bit, and then after I talked to the woman named Sybil who recognized me from Lunds the other day, who I also talked to a bunch the other day. Talked to her quite a bit today too, and she told me how to spell her name. What I did after that was I went home to Papa’s and we had some spaghetti, which he had with red sauce and I had with white sauce. I did have some bread with red sauce though because as soon as I saw his sauce it made me crave it. Don’t have any photos from that either. Ah well, the other totally random thing that happened today was I signed up for Bella Horton’s wedding with the guy Raj. Now I’m about to go over to Town Hall Lanes to get some dinner with Nathaniel, who I video chatted the other day and liked a decent amount. We might see a movie too, not sure where or what one though. Well, we didn’t actually see the movie. Instead we went to Town Hall Lanes and he got the walleye tacos and I got the Thai chicken pizza. He used to live in Florida and wants to move back there because he gets seasonal depression here. I also told him that I’m going to Florida in May with my mom and a friend. He also commented on cars that drove by a lot because he works with cars, I think he said he has a Chevy Impala, He’s a senior technician and started there at Valvoline in May. I also told him about disability too. Looking at other things I wrote down, he said he doesn’t watch sports at all. He said specifically he didn’t wanna get anything to drink, so I didn’t either. He also told me that he’ll bring me a nice pen next time, so I have that to look forward to. Also learned that he was in the marine corps for four years. Not now though, now he’s at Valvoline. It was a good night to see someone, because I had nothing else going on. I also told Nathaniel that I write everything down because of the brain injury and I journal a lot. I even pulled out my journal from before the accident and showed him the most recent entry from before the accident, the one where I say days that I’m not drinking shouldn’t be an exception to the rule. Now I’ve finished this and am just watching a bit more How I Met Your Mother before I go to sleep.
