Is it worth the fight?

It's funny how quickly my mind goes to "well it was fun while it lasted. Time to end things."

Gym/working out

One benefit of covid, other than people having to stay away from me (joke, I am actually really sociable!) was that I massively got into fitness, although you wouldn’t tell now!
