Another day. And I am doing pretty well. I had a decent day yesterday. Worked with one of my colleagues on a presentation we are planning to do on the 24th which took up the majority of the day. The kid worked from 9-2 so I had the house to myself mostly. A friend came over around 4 as she needed a ride to the airport. She is off to Florida for a week and left her car here for me to watch. We dropped the kid off at the train as she had class from 6-9 then dropped her off at the airport. I then went down to where our prop truck is parked and picked up the props bins. I am bringing them over to my director's house tonight. She wants to do a full inventory of everything we have and clean some things. I didn't want someone having to bring the truck all the way over for what amounts to a small set of things. I told her I would bring things over in my car. It all fits with no problem. I have a couple of friends who live near where the truck is parked and I headed over to their house afterwards. We ordered in some BBQ and just shot the breeze until it was time for me to pick up the kid. Headed out around 8:15, got the kid, home by 9:15ish. Another friend is having relationship issues and she came over around 10 for some advice. Me and the kid talked to her and she went home around 11. Time for bed.

You know what all that is? A normal person day. One of the things we talked about over dinner was my struggle to reduce the size of my swings. No one is going to be happy all the time but having swings from +10 to -10 is too dangerous. I need to get it in the +2/+3 to -2/-3 range. I have been getting better these last few months through this self imposed isolation. By letting less drama in and less acting out, I have reigned it in. I would say I have managed to get it to +5/-5 range, maybe 6 at times, but that's an improvement. And part of that is my day yesterday - I can have normal days. I can still do things without them having to be so dramatic one way or the other.

I still stick by my love rant from yesterday though. Now get out there and LOVE!
