The start

So what's up with this blog?

I don't like posting on Twitter (I know it's called X now, but it will always be Twitter in my heart), or on any other social media for that matter. So I decided to do something more fun: make a blog where I can post whatever I want. If no one sees it, that's fine. It's like shouting into the void, and that still helps me. Oh, and it's a fun project to do.

The past couple of years have been tough for me. I was reaping the consequences of my past decisions, and my mental state was shot from my mistakes, the friends I hurt, my family, and so on. I ended up with a serious drinking problem, but I'm fine now.

I'm not going into the details, since it won't change anything and I want to leave it behind me. I cleaned it up, so that chapter is closed. Now I have a new opportunity to get back on my feet.

Now for the good part.

I got my full motorcycle license and got myself a bike... a Honda CB600F Hornet '98. Yes, it's not new, and yes, it needs work, but it's parked in my garage for the winter, so it will be a nice project to distract me from work and other stuff.

Speaking of work, I got a job with an old friend of mine, someone I did one of my first jobs with when I was younger, and it's the best thing ever. The job itself is a challenge, and I still struggle with overthinking even simple things. But I'm working with a good friend who's the boss, and he's extremely understanding and helps me when shit goes wrong. There's no stupid overthinking or stress.

So yeah, nothing major, but hey, it's a start. So what's next? I will try to keep reaching out to my old friends and build nice relationships (if I don't reach out, sorry, I have a goldfish memory, so just message me on Discord). Pick up old or new hobbies. Start taking better care of my health, and so on. But all of this will be updated on this blog.

Thanks for reading.
