So I finished up grading today (I have an unusually large number of students who's last names start with Z). Could've done it faster but I really wasn't feeling it. Too anxious? Too tired? Too done? Overall, I'd say I don't feel as good as yesterday, though still much better than say last Saturday. My appetite sort of came back though? Maybe because I've dropped a bit too much weight in the past week and really need to get that up a bit more.
Anyway, I pretty much just graded papers and went through best case and worse case scenarios before doing nothing at all. Came home, ate dinner and played some extremely frustrating rounds of smash. First time I've played video games in a while, which I guess is another point against team anhedonia. I'll beat you yet. Did not finish my CV. Did not fix my bike (I really need to do that tomorrow, next week is rainy and the spare doesn't have mud flaps).
Got an email saying that my Monday night class will be split across two days for the next two weeks. I don't want to celebrate too much because the reason is pretty unfortunate, but I did shed a tear of joy when I realized I'd be able to go to FHE again for two weeks. I guess I didn't realize how much that was affecting me. What a sap I am. Pine sap maybe, sticky and annoying.
Speaking of pines...

I just don't want to make the same mistakes I made almost exactly 10 years ago, but I don't trust myself. (That emphasis was entirely unintentional but I'm keeping it because it works quite well)
As a complete side note, the idea of some hypothetical reader coming in and being confused by these sentences really amuses me. Like what could be so secret, so personal that I won't openly share it on this blog, a blog where I am very open about all sorts of sordid things. The fact I drop hints just makes it worse (but funnier to me).
1: Not sure if that's the right word to use here but whatever
2: I went back on forth on a couple causative but yes, I think in the end this one has exactly the implication I want
3: My hatred of interrogative pronouns is gonna be the death of me
4: Pretty happy about this coinage
