Resting Day 8

Woke up from a dream (tangentially related to the question and no, I haven't answered the question). Eventually pulled myself out of bed, showered and went to my office. Had lunch with a friend, mixed Counting Sheeple (working on a separate post for that one) and played Wavelengths at English corner. You could tell there were some cultural differences by how much harder it was with this group than when I played last time with all American Mormons (coincidentally, that night was around when I started up this blog again). The student who wanted to argue with me about her grade didn't show up, so maybe that will happen tomorrow.

Institute was about marriage, which of course is not my favorite topic. Mostly about what makes a good marriage, which is a bit better of a topic though it was a reminder of some of the reasons my past relationships failed. It also didn't help that today is the Other's birthday and while I still have a certain fondness for the Other (unlike Her...who's birthday is coming up soon as well, since I apparently have a thing for chicks with spring birthdays) that got me thinking about how much I screwed up that relationship (that relationship would've failed even if I hadn't closed myself off so totally, but that doesn't mean I don't feel bad about how it ended). Anyway, I should message her tomorrow and wish her a happy birthday. Don't want to get back together with her but I am curious to see how she's doing and hope her life has been going well. 

Big day tomorrow. I'm getting up early to go running with people (and a 7 mile bike ride to the meeting point lol), then going climbing and then hanging around my office before probably chilling at the lake with some friends going paddleboarding. Should wear sunscreen and prepare for 20-30 miles.

Felt fine today. Very neutral overall I think. So maybe when I feel good some of those really are hypomanias? I need a psychologist, one with experience with this. I know technically any should be fine but since teasing out dysthymia vs BD-II is really tricky; I'd like one with experience.
