In Which Balance on French History is Hard to Get Correctly

Good evening, my friend, dear reader of this present post! Happy Monday of a new week! The month of April 2026 reaches its final days, hopefully those will proceed nicely. How are you? Hopefully your werkend went well and with no incidents? Those can be disruptive and bothersome. My own set of days went okay overall. I did receive an important document this Friday, which was the results of my neuropsychological evaluation. As it turns out, I have an IQ above average! It caught me by surprise and I am so happy to see it! My own is at 110, and though this is not exactly what would be called "geniality" territory, that is quite functional and then some, therefore I am happy, on that end. The test flagged exactly what is going on in my head, the result is not entirely positive, and this is not that it can be fixed or cured, it is frustrating how that is not the case with brain issues and quirks, just mitigated and dealt with. I do not have ADHD, but I do have OCD, in a level high...

In Which we have a peaceful Birthday and plans for the morning

Good morning, kind friend, dear reader of this post! Happy Tuesday, and I wish you the best! How are you? Hope your week is up for a good start, hope the weather for you is endurable, also. As for me, today I dare to say I am well, how couldn't it be the case? It is my birthday! Today, precaution takes the backseat, I take a short break from "okay" and I say "I am good"! One is always worried life, as often happens in a novel, will throw bad and worser things at you, as to tear you down, as to demoralize you. Fortunately, this is not a novel, so potentially good days may as well be just that, and in the end, even actually pleasant! Of course, I would wish it could rain today, as the weather of spring seems to have come much sooner than I'd like. Rain or not rain, though, I am still turning 27!

I went to the mall yesterday, as a way of celebrating a bit. The second time in three months, the first visit of the year happening in the occasion of Wes's movie, something I wrote about. I went to an ice cream place, for some sweets, and I got the mug with the nice logo of the shop! Very happy with how it went. Some days ago, I went to the pizza place for an early celebration and also a commemoration of father's day. Also went well! Here I aknowledge my brother was actually most kind to me! And we talked about movies! It was a very nourishing dialogue in topics we can see eye to eye! I was ready to feel sorrow over any incident, none happened. 

To celebrate today, I am not entirely sure what I will do. I don't know if mom will get me a cake, and in truth, I don't mind if she does not. It has been a time of financial hurdles for us, I did mentioned it before. Also, if she does get a cake, my aunt, uncle and my family members may come around. I do like to see them, I don't like to being in a position of having to socialize that heavily, and given the echo chamber here at home, which I though living here do not take part, I worry they will talk over subjects I abhor, I am very sensitive on this. Well, but if mom gets a cake, and if she for any opportunity has a gift for me, I will be happy as well, and will accept graciously! This year, the occasion so far has been one of financial hurdle, but I did manage to get a 45º angle pillow for my bedroom, as so I can rest my back and not be entirely horizontal all of the time! I hope this alongside the med I discovered, may help me with the acid reflux, which has been an affliction over the past momths.

Talking about those routine trivial matters is a theme I actually do not feel that bad about anymore. It is fun to observe how most of my posts come not from the inner desire to express my thoughts, but just to talk about life, or at least I did not write the moment I had some intellectual thought in mind, usually when that is the case I can even have a hard time developing a text on it. Like with streaming, I did not for the seasons do good with it because, given I am a naturally silent person when playing what I do, interacting wirh amy friend in potential, or most usually, just to my screen, to be draining. It has been a year, this 2025, of a growing appreciation for the routine and the ordinary. Maybe I am jusr old. As I mention, it is my birthdah after all...



I remember when Aunt was celebrating her 27th birthday, some many many years ago. Crazy that we are not exactly that distant on age, I being from the late 90'd and her from the early 80's. We are almost at the same generation, almost. Time passes by, often these days quite faster than would so desire. Quite a cliche, and it is so because it is true. How will I celebrate another milestone, so again I ask: how to celebrate it? Maybe just writing on the blog is enough for now! I am working on a drawing, that I hope to finish someday. There are games to be played, though I am not exactly in a hurry. Just because it looks and walks like an ordinary day, does not mean it is one. I am joyful, it is my birthday!

With all that being said, maybe it is a good time to wrap today's post? Just happy I could write this special date! I di hope I may return really soon to the blog, and perhaps the second half of August will be a productive one! We will see, I often relies on mt whim to at least work on hobbies. In any case, thank you dear friend for your company right now. I wish you the best!! Happy ongoing week! See you again real real soon!!
