Small victories

Today was one of those days where I had a difficult time getting out of bed and motivating myself… a typical Monday, in other words… but I’m proud of myself for getting down to the local gym and persisting even if I felt like I had to muster up a lot of fake energy that simply wasn’t there. All in all, today’s workout wasn’t one of my more fruitful sessions, but I’m glad I persevered. Going to the gym and shaking off some of that morning malaise has been such a tonic during this relatively unproductive phase of my life.

I haven’t watched the Super Bowl halftime show yet, but I’ll get around to seeing it at some point. Normally, I’m not all that fussed about the Super Bowl — or American football, for that matter — but I did stay up to watch last years’s halftime show, mostly because I love me some Kendrick Lamar and although I’m sure some people will probably disagree with me, I thought his performance was outstanding. I must also admit that I don’t really have any familiarity with Bad Bunny outside of him appearing in that Brad Pitt film Bullet Train from a few years back, but from what I’ve heard, his show went down a storm and… look, I’m just gonna say it… if he has the MAGA bootlickers clutching their pearls, then he must be doing something right.

Come to think of it, I haven’t really been watching, reading or even playing much of anything lately. I think that’s something I’m gonna have to rectify going forward.
