I had such a good day yesterday. It's really rare that I'll have a day that starts good and stays good all day
When I woke up I realised I woke up too early and could sleep for another hour, which strangely made me happy, and it was kind of cold in my room so it was so cozy in my bed. Then I went for a walk and it was a nice temp. My bus ran on time, my train was on time and less busy than usual, my tram ran on time and had lots of seats.
I went to an advocacy training thing for kids in out of home care, and found out that it leads to lots of exciting positions that actually pay a decent amount (I was under the impression that it was all volunteer). I had a great time + free lunch. I asked like a thousand questions, and it seems like a great opportunity to do something that actually seems to make a difference and affect the course of legislature and government policy, which seems like a much more rewarding field to work in then selling people grease burgers in sugar buns
I had teriyaki chicken for dinner, which is one of my favourite things to make, even though I haven't had it for a while. And I finished the day off by falling asleep pretty effortlessly
