Today was a pretty bad day. It was busy, lonely, and stressful to boot. The one bright spot in the afternoon was talking and helping some local young kids with their English, though their English is already pretty good. But still, I had a headache and overall the whole day still sucked.
And then it sucked more because I had to go out and figure out dinner on my own.
And then I got a surprise: a phone call from my local friend who's working in Denmark, just to see how I was doing. The conversation was refreshing and it felt good just to connect with a friend again.*
And then I found a really good Japanese ramen noodle place. Surprisingly good, since it was in a food court.
And then I spent an hour or so just listening to music in a record store.
It was a nice way to have an evening to end a rough day.
Do not underestimate the power of randomly calling your friends just to say hi. I won't.
* - Though I suppose it shouldn't have been a surprise. He called two weeks ago, and at the time said he would call again in two weeks.
