0300B: A Different Year

Thursday - Tahanan Lunch

It's Pride Month, and beyond participating in Komiket Pride last weekend, we have O Bar's annual Pride party to look forward to at the end of the month. A lot has changed over the past year. Tobie and I mostly go to O Bar during off-peak nights since we've been struggling to assemble a full table for busier primetime weekend nights. For the last two events, we've barely managed the small table, as it has just been three of us instead of the full four. For Pride, we at least have 5 people committed to going (including Tobie and me) and just need one more to fill up the table for 6. It's a stark contrast with last year, where we had way too many people wanting to go, and we were unable to book a second table to help accommodate everyone.

I'm fairly sure we'll find a sixth person, but it'll probably be someone a bit unexpected or something. It's mainly a cost thing, sure, but it's also wanting to be with people we love come Pride. And the distinct lack of interest in the events from our friends does sting a bit. I can forgive a lot of the other events, but Pride? Come on! This is the time for family. *sigh*

Anyway, can't be helped. As we get older, priorities change and yada yada yada. Intellectually, I understand it. Emotionally, I get to feel a little pissy about it, too.

Otherwise, I'm good. Work is busy, but good. I've practiced yoga for three straight days this week so far, and I feel great about it. Still not eating perfectly correctly, but I'm doing my best. One step at a time.
