So my boyfriend got gout - which is kinda early for his age. But he's got a good attitude about it, plugging "oh my gout" in every conversation.

Had a brilliant day at work today, felt good. I've been stuck in necessary admin migration type tasks for a bit - that I don't mind doing but are a thankless job. Running around forcing busy people that volunteer their time for the projet to move stupid google drive folders around is no fun for anyone. Today we got to address a budding conflict, talk to the person bringing up the concern and established a game plan. Also spent the day re-arranging some furniture in the lobby, talking shit with members, printing funny labels on the p-touch, doing a new members tour... just some nice human moments. I don't know if it's the Covid starving me from human interactions, but it was just a nice day, barely any computer-work but that felt very productive.

Getting this job has always been tainted with many insecurity and doubts, but today (after 3 fucking months) has probably been one of my favorites, that makes me thing it wasn't all for nothing and that there are cool things coming ahead.
