Finally, things are looking up...

I'm really glad 23 happened, because it got me to 24. I know that sounds redundant because OF COURSE I'd have to go through age 23 to get to 24, but specifically last year changed a lot of things for me.

I've thoroughly cleaned my house and my van. That means, scrubbing, vacuuming, moping, etc. I've been doing pretty good over the last 2 months in keeping them clean too. I feel much better about myself with all of this going on.

I've given up soda and have been primarily drinking water. On top of that, I have been eating mostly vegan at home with a little cheese here and there. I still eat junk, but I'm getting better.

I've been working out since the beginning of this month and I already feel better about my health and appearance. My facial hair is kept and I don't feel that my skinniest jeans are too tight like I did when I was teaching.

Last week I went on a date with a girl named Michelle and we hit it off. We went out again last night and tonight we spent 25 minutes on the phone together. I'm very excited about her and this seems so promising. I'll try not to screw it up.

I've been reading a book on Taoism and it talks about taking care of the self and its benefits. I feel that I'm now reaping the rewards of taking care of myself and the world is reacting positively. I'll try to keep it up for as long as I can.
