well, the skateboard is going in the trash. i did shred it quite a bit. not as much as i’d have liked, but well enough that i’m marking this as done.

i finally picked it back up! my calluses were about gone but after a mere three days, they’re returning. for some reason, the hiatus has refreshed my sense of creative strumming, and i must say i’ve been pumping out some pretty catchy rhythms. maybe some time away is a good thing? anyways, i’m back on it now.
i’m definitely well into ass-kicking gear at this point. i’ve graduated, i’m drinking far less, thinking about the future more, and settling into a more meditative state. i’ve got two doctor visits down, one tomorrow, and ideally three after that. i’m struggling with those final three because i now have shitty-ass healthcare when i used to have the top-notch stuff. it’s really frustrating because i have an incredibly limited time to get all of it done (about two weeks). i mostly hope i can get surgery by that time, because i know it’d really improve my quality of life.
so i’m hoping to get most of the visits i want. if i can do that, things will look even more open for me than they already do.
edit: just found out one of those three appointments has been set up.
day-after edit: all appointments scheduled!
