My bullet journal fell in a puddle at Starbucks on Main Street

I was sitting outside the Starbucks on Main Street last Tuesday. Got up to grab my coffee and my journal slid right off the table into a puddle. Everything smudged. Lost two weeks of habit tracking and my April mood log. Anyone else ever ruin a journal with a dumb accident like that?

Lost two weeks of habit tracking" ouch, that is rough. I would have been so mad at myself if that happened to my journal.

Ugh, that stinks man. A buddy of mine had the same thing happen with his language learning app. He was on a 48 day streak, gone because he forgot his phone on a bus. He said he just stared at the empty screen for five minutes. Then he just closed the app and didn't open it for like a month. I think it hurt his motivation more than the actual lost data. Habits are weird like that, the streak matters more than the progress sometimes.

Does it ever feel like the universe picks the most inconvenient moments to mess with our everyday things, like a journal or a phone? It's almost like we get too comfortable with our routines and something has to remind us nothing's permanent, lol.
