When am I going to experience the high of a split fiction again?
Cool. That last hour, I won't say anything more, but goddamn.
Could be. But here's the thing. I keep picking up Outer Wilds because I've been slow playing it, and that game is giving me so much joy.

Wait, this is... five-year-old game or whatever it is yeah but like it's a five-year-old game that has given me so much joy yeah but it's also like one where i i feel like i have to like fight for time for me to sit down and play so i'm playing a real simple answer for you on how to make some time don't play volleyball at 10 30 at night what are you fucking doing this is the last game of the season god that's over with oh man oh i'm signing up for another season we're running it back volleyball is the best sport i love volleyball
It's such a fun time. What makes that better than soccer and all the other sports you guys have played?
That I'm better at it. I am so bad at soccer. And, like, as a team, we're not great at volleyball. Like, we didn't get any volleyball wins this season either. But at the very least, yeah, like, I'm playing for the love of the game. I feel like I am competent at volleyball. And, like, there's a level of input that I feel like I can give toward volleyball because I know how to bump. I know how to set. I know how to, like, You know, like I have the reflexes that I think are tailor made for volleyball as opposed to soccer. I get the ball and all of a sudden, like, it's like I have two left feet. Right. I'm tripping over myself. I'm like, what am I doing here? I love soccer in theory, but playing soccer is a different thing for me. Sure.
I don't know what happened because the middle school I was better at soccer somehow as an adult. I just don't have it anymore.

Montreal, Chicago.
Something like that. I don't know. The last thing I went did for whatever. It was a work trip. Royal Rumble. When I was at Royal Rumble, Jen started playing Mario Kart with Ben. And of course, she was just beating the shit out of Ben. She felt so good about it. She was coming in first every time. And then I came back and showed her what a real Mario Kart player looks like.
