happy birthday to me

I had the day off today. I took a bro­ken chair and ottoman to the dump, I did laun­dry, I talked to my mom and got texts from my sis­ters, I wrote a few hun­dred words, I went for a 2‑km bike ride (first of the year!), I enjoyed the heck out of a Guin­ness choco­late cake my wife got for me at Chez Angela, and I taught/studied a cou­ple foot/leg throws at judo^[1]sasae-tsuriko­mi-ashi (lifting/pulling foot block) and hiza-guru­ma (knee wheel) .

I’ve had worse birthdays.
