Triumph is sometimes just an insult comic dog.

On the good side

I got my first trophy ever, for anything, last night.  Third-place in the poker final for the month of April!  I'm getting good at something.  Yay!

On the struggling side

The best friend just passed 21 days of virtual house arrest without his power wheelchair.  He is rightfully bummed about the whole thing, so I've been over there a lot, trying to keep him company and make his days brighter, all while trying to stay well and above bummersville myself.  This is not always easy, but it's worth it.

And on top of it, my own chair is slowly falling apart.  My head rest and the unnecessary footplate under my foot pedals that I use just fell off for no reason.  Apparently, when you're just a few days beyond the warranty, this happens.  Just like a used car.

I'm glad I finally get a massage again on Wednesday.  Thank you everyone.  If this is a sample of my next 30 years, I'm a little scared...  :-).
