Tearful love

I'd rather be a comma, tha(e)n a full stop.

Commas help me breathe. Literally.

It's been a long day for me. I got up early, and went for a walk around the neighbourhood. I did a bit of rearranging of my bedroom, and found drumsticks. I used the drumsticks to practice air percussion, and also, some ground strokes.

Speaking of sports-speak, I'm thinking of picking up badminton again. Except this time, I'll play left-handed. I expect this will be an enormous challenge, especially if I play against people who have played before. Because honestly, pickleball is straining my nerves.

Another bright day ahead tomorrow.

 I don't care how good Apex Legends or The Finals is: I keep going back to Overwatch 2.

I miss 6vs6 dearly, but it was total chaos. I laugh as I say this, because I don't really have friends who play this game with me. Only randos I met online, which is fine, but I'm afraid of people I don't know because it's only normal.

Something I notice now, though, is that instead of having a main tank and a side tank, you now have a main DPS and a side DPS.

As of current patch, healers get healed by hiding. Of course I'm gonna play support; I ain't about to pop off on Widowmaker with my Joy-Cons, lol.

No such thing as a homeopathic dose of water

 What does that mean?

Answer: The daily double.

Flip flopping weather

No, not flip-flop weather; flip flopping weather. Meaning, it snows a bit. Stops. Temperature rises, snow melts. Temperature falls just enough - it snows again. Still no sun. This time the snow sticks, and the sun finally comes out, but oh no! It's -15 below with wind chill! So it's cold but at least there's sun. But then, it starts warming up again. Rain on the forecast for this week, actually. All the snow melts - again - and if we're unlucky, the temperature will dip once more and the melted snow will turn to dangerous ice and make transportation difficult.

Such is the flip flopping weather cycle in Toronto this year. There were, I believe, a total of two tiny snowfalls at the end of 2023, where the snow lasted at most a couple days, and then nothing until January. Without checking the stats, I'm confident that thus far this winter has been the one with the least amount of snow. Which is regrettable, because I like having a winter that feels like a winter, and despite snow shovelling being a chore, I still enjoy getting the exercise when I can.

A gentle snow is falling now at this very moment. And it's good to be grateful about the present moment. So I'm content with seeing that gentle snowfall outside my window, but knowing that it's probably going to rain tomorrow, I won't even bother shovelling anything. Oh well. Time to enjoy the snow while it's there!
