Birthday Party
Today was Geo's little brother's 9th birthday party. We went to a bowling alley and bowled for a while. It was actually pretty fun, and I handled it very well I think. I didn't freak out and have an anxiety attack, I didn't get depressed when I was the only one who didn't get a strike (but I still noticed that), and when we played pool I just sat and watched and tried to enjoy it. I suck at pool, and so when I play I get depressed. It's a major trigger for me, so I just sat back and watched everyone else play. I didn't feel left out or anything. I think it's good. Today was a good day. I ate totally out of my calorie range (about an extra 1,000 calories) but it was a birthday party and I wasn't expecting to be in my range today. We will see how it comes out tomorrow when I weigh, but I'm expecting a gain so hopefully it won't be too bad.
I'm at Geo's dad's house right now, on the computer. It's 11:30 at night and I wanted to get my journal in before midnight, so I had to do it here since I don't think that I'm going to get home in time. Geo's brother hasn't opened his present yet, the adults are still watching boxing and I think they are going to open it when the match is over. I'm not going to say what it is here since his brother might come in, but it does require the TV so I think they want to watch their boxing before we open it. His brother is going to be so happy! Geo brought his video camera to record so we can have his reaction on tape. I hope it's working... the LCD screen isn't working anymore for some unknown reason and so we hope that it still records. Luckily for me at home I have my webcam, so I can still do my vlogs when I want to (not often). It's just that Geo has a better camera than my webcam.
I think boxing is over, so I'm going to go check out what's going on over there. I'm putting today as a good day, since I handled the situation well despite having a bad morning. I woke up at 6am feeling fine, but I had only 6 hours of sleep. I stayed up until after 9am, and then slept until 2:30pm. I was mood swinging when I first woke up, but after that once we left the house I've been doing better. I slept a bit too much, but it's better than going hypomanic. I was a bit stressed today with the activity at the bowling alley, but I handled it fine.
