September 20, 2023

September 20, 2023, Wednesday night, 7:43pm, pacific standard time, hotel in Bakersfield, California, USA . Had a presentation at 10:30am this morning. I was nervous but it turned out not to be that big of a deal. The anticipation was more stressful than the meeting. I looked at posts I wrote from last March this morning. Amazing how little has changed. I am still the same person with the same emotions. Obviously, that is true. What did I expect? Finally, today is my last day in Bakersfield for a while. I realized I won’t be back tomorrow, next week or perhaps even the week after that. I am supposed to take San Diego and Vista October 1, 2023. We will see if that happens. It doesn’t matter all that much. I feel overwhelmed. I keep saying something has to give but does it really? It is amazing how much torturous stress you can subject your body (and mind) to endure.
