Tennis legend Rafael Nadal played his last professional match at the Davis Cup on Tuesday, losing to Botic van de Zandschulp of the Netherlands. “The way I would like to be remembered more is like a good person from a small village in Mallorca,” the 38-year-old saidafter the match. “Just a kid that followed their dreams.”

had a wellness blood test this week and got the results. things seem good-ish, but then this. :| not as concerned re: the blood pressure (though subconsciously yes) but the GD body fat is really not making my day (or that hip measurement, but what can i do!!!) (GD thighs been my curse since high school but still grateful for legs and thighs, even if they are big)

having trouble balancing the beauty in the world and all the sadness, feel like I see it all up close at the library, all the suffering (and yes, all the kindness, too), but everyone is going through it, i don’t know how the universe can hold it all. had to cry and listen to music last night cuz it was just all too much. BUT amid all the stress with mom (shattered shoulder, MIA care at her assisted living, fraud on her credit card, trying to schedule surgery/care/finish her taxes), somehow this week I haven’t had a headache!!!! I’m chalking it up to:
*a lot* of pasta for lunch, like, A LOT
my semi-gross, but protein-rich smoothies — for some reason I can’t get the flavors right but I honestly don’t care too much, they’re merely a means to end
reintroduction of electrolyte water powder
return to vitamins!!!! Ugh I hate taking them to be honest
yin yoga? (tho skipped today so we’ll see if I get a headache today)
(intentionally left in) acupuncture needles in my calves?!??
ross thinks my headaches are from HUNGER, lol, don’t think so but the pasta is really helping, so it’s confusing. ok ok more nonsense coming soon, mostly about the myth of sisyphus.
