I had a pretty calm day. I tried going to bed early as @bpcyclist suggested. It didn't work out too well as the upstairs neighbor decided to have a big night on his balcony with a lady friend. First they had a late dinner, then they had sex, then they got high. I tried not to mind. He's never done that before and it sounds like he is a nice young guy who has trouble getting rid of excess energy.

I ate better today, having some protein, fiber and water and not just junk. I only played two games of Scrabble. I won, then lost. I think it's important to stop at one loss. Playing is not good for me but i'm bored and there are lots of other things i could do which would be worse, drinking, drugging, sex.

It's a heat wave here but i am tolerating it well. Except for my dog's afternoon break i find it rather nice. It's nice to have the apartment thrown open to the outdoors. It really feels like Summer in the city!

Hugs to all who struggle!
