- I saw fireflies last night for the first time this summer
- We had tatertots and hotdogs baked in pizza dough for dinner (my childhood self would be deeply envious)
- My best friend and I are playing Stardew Valley together weekly after a decade or so of only irregular emails and once-a-year visits
- The potato plants in the back garden are turning into an enthusiastic small jungle
- We're finally starting to have people over again, and the weather's been absolutely perfect for hanging out on the back porch
- I've found a pretty cool bunch of people to play games with in the evenings (and sometimes afternoons, if someone needs a 'therapy' session)
- For pretty much the first time in my life I don't feel vaguely lonely. It's nice
- I've been doing this LiveJournal thing for ... wow, 14 years? That's almost half my life. Crazy. But the good kind of crazy. It's been something I can keep coming back to throughout changes in life and interests and I'm grateful to every one of you who's hung out with me over the years, despite everything
