Levitating (Dua Lipa)

And yesterday, New Year’s Day, it was Hair by Little Mix (feat. Sean Paul).

Yesterday I slept in till about 10:30 (yikes!), did a short workout and a run, then tried to do some work before making homemade Ramen, getting on a Zoom call with Andi’s parents and watching an episode of the Soprano’s.

I am so grateful for every January as a time to recompose without feeling the need to drink. With Andi, I’ve come to see that most of the people I look up to most are those who have given up the drink (or who never even started). Last year I tried to practice equanimity, but it turns out that’s hard when you’re dealing with fatigue, anxiety or self-criticism (sometimes all at once) as a consequence of drinking. So fuck that. Bring on possibility.
