Daily Update, October 3, 2025

On Friday after breakfast, my main nurse took me down to Kamana Senior Center for my first Ballroom Dance: Foxtrot class. I paid for it, so I'm fully in now. I certainly enjoyed the class. We covered mainly beginning steps I think I caught on faster than with the cha-cha, but I learned this one not just from my P.E. teacher, who didn't know how to teach dance, but from Dad, who did teach dance. When class was done, my main nurse came and took me home again. {Smile}

I half-slept on the way down and back, because I was tired. It helped, but I was still tired. When I got home, I got onto my computer and read articles and watched videos right over lunch. Then I took a nap. I felt better when I got up, but still somewhat tired. Treating my blood sugar seemed to help. While I was treating my blood sugar, I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I went to the villain supergroup meeting on my mid-level member. Dr. Faustus and another were already there. The leader and one more came. WE visited in-character and out, then got ready to trick-or-treat. I switched to my moderately high-level member for that. We did it for a couple of hours, right through a zombie apocalypse. I got a bunch of badges, including most of the trick-or-treat badges. The meeting broke up a while before dinner because the leader was tired, and others had things to do. I sorted out storage, auction house, and crafting for a while. Then I squeezed in cleaning myself up with the help of my main nurse before dinner. {Smile}

After dinner read articles and watched videos on the web. Then I wrote up Thursday's daily update before I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I started by working on the auction house, storage and crafting some more. Next, I started trick-or-treating on my third-best badge collector. I hadn't been doing that long when Dr. Faustus said hi. I left trick-or-treating to join him. We finished the story arc we started last night, then started another story arc before saying goodnight. I did a little auction house and storage, then made notes in this with a longer break than I meant to looking at dance shoes on Amazon. After that I finished notes in this and ended with The Lord's Prayer and Forward Day by Day. Yes, I'm using the Lord's Prayer, though I recently altered one line, inspired by The Unjust Steward by Miguel Escobar. He encouraged alternatives to the phrase "our daily bread." He chose a description of lots and lots of bread after reflecting on the Bible and the lives of the people who wrote it. But he mentioned the caloric requirements of different people, and that inspired me to choose the phrase "fully enough bread" instead. It seemed a good way to factor in that some people need more than others, due to their general activity levels, and any recent problems getting enough in the first place. {Smile}
