Tom and Mom at Sonder Shaker


March 26, 2023: Well dear God I’m finally doing my photo on the actual day. I had my meds at 6:25 with a 9mg fat cookie from Open Door and a little vanilla honey yogurt. I also figured out who the girl in one of my yearbook pics is, Courtney Jenson. Mom also came over this morning and I discovered that the thing left in the back of my car that I hadn’t known what it was, was a flashlight from the car detailing place. Mom said that it was bigger than she’d expected from the photo, so it makes sense what it is, and she texted the guy who detailed my car and he confirmed it. Then instead of going to the gym I decided to drive over to Papa’s house, and talk to him quite a bit and work on the yearbook a bit. Didn’t take any pics even though that might have been the best part of my day. Oh well. Well then at around 4pm I went over to mom’s and she had already picked up Tom so then we went to dinner together at Sonder Shaker. (Well damn, I started this yesterday but didn’t finish it, so I’ll finish now.) Before we went out to dinner we stopped by mom’s new apartment and showed him it. We talked a bit about housing and she said that she would consider buying a condo like the one that we might get for me. At Sonder Shaker for drinks I asked for a sour and they told me the Ommegang Rosetta beer was kind of sour so I got it. Mom and I also split a wagyu burger and fries, and then we all split a large order of brussel sprouts too. I also took my photo after we had gotten our food and told Tom about this project. Because I kind of wanted the whole order of food, I actually finished Tom’s fries too. We also talked about lives, and it turns out that Liam, his son, is actually really into intense music, so Tom knew Lamb of God, and I told him that I had served the dummer Art Cruz and gotten free tickets to a show that we went to. Then Tom decided he wanted desert, so he and mom split a chocolate mousse pie thing that was called a s’more bread pudding. I got the passion fruit pot de créme, which was topped with chia seeds and was fantastic. Because I decided to take my meds afterwards, I then got the time 6:40 that I had last easten at set an alarm for 8:40 for my meds. So then at 8:40 after I’d been dropped off at home and called Papa a bit to chat, I had my meds with one of Jodi’s chocolate chip bars, even though I wasn’t really hungry by then. God I don’t really like this new medication thing where I have to eat when I’m not actually hungry.
