A Day in the Life: 04 March 2017

A Day in the Life is a blog linkup run by Liz of Janepedia.com.

I haven’t participated in a linkup for years, if memory doesn’t fail me, and I feel excited like a kid at the thought of joining fellow bloggers in this kind of sharing, especially considering the changes I’ve made to my blog since last year. 🙂

So here it goes:

What time is it?

10:08 PM

Before I started writing this, I was:

Getting my calendar organized for this weekend, and choosing a place on my desk for the new books I bought today.

Something I love about myself today is:

I didn’t feel ashamed of stimming¹ in public, which feels great, because I usually get anxious about that. I think it was Simone’s presence to help, because he accepts me for the way I am and he does his best to help me get rid of the overload when it happens. He also helped me cry while we were at the restaurant, which made a huge difference, because crying eases my tachicardia and the panic I get from the overload.

Something good that happened today:

Simone and I celebrated 7 years together! 🙂 We spend a lovely day out, in Rome. We ate Japanese for lunch and pizza with chips for dinner, we spent hours in book shop and talked culture and nerdyness, all completed with plenty of cuddles (those include staring into each other’s eyes lovingly <3).

Who did you speak to most recently?

Offline: Simone and my sister.

Online: my spiritual children, my client Jerry and Georgie.

On my to-do list for tomorrow:

Progress on the How to Write White Papers course by copywriter Steve Slaunwhite on FreelanceWritersDen.com (disclosure: it’s my affiliate link), a subscription community for freelance writers created by the awesome Carol Tice (a pro blogger I admire, as a professional and as a human being). It’s a $25/month worth of forums, bootcamps, calls and more lovely stuff.

Also, I plan to have a Chinese dinner out with my friend Silvia after church. 🙂

A random moment from today:

When I tried to explain to Simone my idea on a game we were playing, about a number series like 2 – 4 – 6, that numbers were in the form

1+1 = 2

2+2 = 4

3+3 = 6

and I explained it like:

“The sum of a [natural] number to its own copy.”

And Simone was like “what?!”

LOL Sometimes I just can’t put thoughts into words and I come up with the weirdest expressions.

A word to describe your mood today.

Happy. <3

Anything that didn’t go according to plan?

Not waking up before 9 this morning, so Simone and I couldn’t meet before 1 PM, because I had to wash my hair and it took some time. I went to sleep late last night, around 2 AM, due to some issues with hormones that had given me a slight depression. It was gone this morning, but I had to sleep enough hours to function and I couldn’t before 9.

But yeah, that didn’t ruin the day, at least! 🙂
