Election Day

9:28 PM

I hate it when I miss a journal entry because then I have to recall what that day was about, and I can forget details. The past few days have been hectic and busy. I feel kind of tired just thinking about the past few days and don't even feel like writing a journal entry about them either, but I'll summarize.

To summarize though, on Sunday I went to another vegan event with Guy and Gus at around 11 AM. Gus chose to bicycle there even though he could have ridden with us, it was like an hour's bicycling away, and like a 20 minute drive for Guy and I, through a highway too. Eric did not want to go for some reason, he says it was because someone at another event complained about his activism or something. Guy and I told him, who cares, but he still chose not to come.

The event was pretty nice. There were some vegan food stalls and and a presentation by Casa Vegana. I got to talk to a few people there. AJN and Chan showed up. Chan and I talked about a bunch of stuff. Very interesting, intelligent, and kind guy. He invited me to an event on Monday, and would have rented a car for me to pick me up if I didn't have a ride. We talked about that event and a few other things. Later I introduced him to a woman friend who taught a bit of Chinese in Puerto Rico, she was also attending the event.

Maybe I asked someone at at the event. Maybe I shouldn't have since I'm already interested in someone else. She was attractive and we were vibing, and it just happened. I told her I'd message her on IG, but I still haven't, two days later. She's likely expecting a message from me this whole time. Ugh.

Also there were women there I was attracted to, that I knew I'd never see again. I kind of thought it would be cool to know them, but that I didn't talk to any of them. The one I maybe asked out, talked to me first I think.

Anyway, after the event, I dropped off Guy back at the hostel and went home. At home I don't even remember what I did. Maybe I took a nap or watched anime or something. Then I think we went to the gym. I don't even remember.

Yesterday though, Monday, it was for the most part a normal day. Except that invite from Chan about an event this night (Monday). I didn't want to go, but I told him I'd come. It took a lot of courage to text him that I'd changed my mind. He had arranged for a friend driver to pick me up too. I did have a working car, but he assumed I didn't because I asked if I could get a ride. I just asked that because I thought it would be more convenient for me to get a ride instead of driving there.

I went to the Caguas gym with Eric, Guy, and Gus instead. I think that was the better choice than attending the event, for me anyway. He'd send me a voice message the next day saying it went well. I just didn't want to go.

Today has been tiring too. Yesterday, Monday, I did a deployment to production for a client. Today to fix something, we did another deployment. This was in the morning. At some point daylight's savings time was reversed, so now the time in Puerto Rico (AST time zone) is now 1 hour ahead of EST. This pretty much meant I'd have to be available for work from 9 AM to 6 PM. 9 AM because I'm awake and have nothing else to do anyway.

Nothing else happened the rest of the day that I can recall. There was a meeting today for another project, and someone who worked on it was passing the stuff they worked on to me. I have my own opinions about their work. It's negative opinions though so I probably should just keep it to myself. But yeah, it is so interesting what I saw. Interesting and humorous. I don't care about any work drama though, and don't want to get in trouble for it either, even though most would probably support me and just see my observations as something entertaining, so I'll just keep it to myself.

Today's voting day. I wonder who will win? I'd vote for a vegan candidate if there was one. All candidates and everyone in fact should be vegan. I've encountered pretty much every situation and seen all the excuses across the board, there is still no justifiable reason we kill and eat any animals at all.

Anyway, I'm sleepy. Will try and go to sleep now. Maybe read a bit of a book first. Hopefully the book can be boring enough that it makes me fall asleep.
