With the newborn, every week feels like a very long time. I was talking with my wife about how it feels like 2 weeks ago was the distant past. It's bizarre.

Let alone months. He turns 5 months tomorrow, and we've been in a pandemic for a little over that, but it's hard to even remember what February felt like. Not worrying about whether I brought my mask, going out whenever we want, not taking care of a human all the time, sleeping all night every night. It's actually getting hard to remember what that felt like.

I spent the whole first year remembering exactly what life was like a year prior. Once I hit the 1 year mark it was this great relief because suddenly I was no longer thinking "1 year ago was amazing and now life sucks" and switched to "wow 1 year ago sucked a lot more than now does"
wow, [you]. that all sounds terrible. i hope it gets better for you

If I marry a rich lady I'm fine having a reasonable number like eight, or maybe fifteen
