Only a little over a month in and I've already got some great things going for me.

First and foremost is getting the news early in January that my leukemia is in full remission. Great way to start the year!

Secondly, I've now been on two official dates with a girl I've been seeing for a couple weeks now, though we've been hanging out a lot beyond those. The dates were both amazing and things have been going wonderfully. I'm excited to see where things go.

Already this year is shaping up to be a much needed huge improvement over the extreme lows of my 2022. May it keep trending this way.

Freeman and slave, patrician and plebeian, lord and serf, guild-master and journeyman, in a word, oppressor and oppressed, stood in constant opposition to one another, carried on an uninterrupted, now hidden, now open fight, a fight that each time ended, either in a revolutionary reconstitution of society at large, or in the common ruin of the contending classes.
