Jan. 10, 22: Routine, Napping, Oculus, TV, and Games

Well, crap! Today was a complete and utter loss. 😭 Even though it was a Monday, I did not catch that Monday vibe and I accomplished absolutely nothing other than doing my post for the day and the dishes…can’t help but feel sad that I’ve been wasting my one go round. 😢 I’d had really high hopes for getting work done on the website over the winter break, but my being (brain and body) went on break despite my ambitions.

The snoring is nothing if not consistent. Got me up and out of bed at three again this morning and I was totally exhausted the entire day. Been crashing out every afternoon for the last three or four days…what a way to spend your life: wanting to go to sleep, sleeping, and trying to wake up from sleeping. Is that really fulfilling the purpose for my existing?

I did my usual morning routine, smoked an inordinate number of cigarettes, and played out the Splinterlands quest I rage quit on yesterday. Did my post, no surprise, and then told myself that I would feel better about myself if I got some prep done for school starting next week. Did I, though? No.

Took care of my feet, which are still an ongoing issue. 🤕😢 To be honest, I have been a bit less diligent about it than I was before…only been treating them once a day rather than twice as I should since I generally collapse in the evening and can barely bring myself to get my teeth brushed properly let alone going through the whole foot ritual.

I felt exhausted and wanted to go to bed, but I didn’t want to burn another day, so instead I tried to keep myself awake by “doing” something in VR. I tried to go back to Ven, a game that I gave up on a while ago, but this being the third time I’ve tried, the platforming is so rediculously difficult and unforgiving that I got frustrated and quit yet again. 😡

I went in to the Oculus store looking for a new game now that I beat Song in the Smoke, and there’s both After the Fall and Medal of Honor. Though I was tempted (and have been), I still resisted the urge, feeling guilty that I have games I haven’t finished and a couple I’ve barely even played! (I haven’t finished Resident Evil 4 either, not sure what my deal is with that…kinda’ enjoyed it so much that I didn’t want it to end, I guess.)

I played a bit of Puzzling Places and completed a fifty piece version I hadn’t done, but then I couldn’t fight my exhaustion any more. I got a sandwich for a super early lunch and then laid down. Was going to put on some Warrior Nun, but I didn’t even try to put up the pretense that I was going to watch and just collapsed for a couple hours.

Got up again and, as usual, it took me quite a while to get going. Didn’t feel terrible physically, but didn’t feel that great about myself. The best I could do was just to plop back down in front of the tube and watch some more Warrior Nun.

I watched one episode (actually made it through) and then Wenche got home from work. She made us yummy turkey tacos for dinner dinner and we watched more Crazy Ex Girlfriend. I was able to stay up for a few episodes and actually went to bed later than usual…was even surprised at myself when I looked at the clock and saw that it was past eight! 😂 I was even awake when she switched over to watching Emily in Paris, but it wasn’t five minutes after that before I was out.

Not sure what’s going on. I’ve uploaded these dShitty photos twice and they don’t seem to be rendering? 🤷 Hopefully they show up in time. Sixty-six minus three is sixty-five is more or less the appropriate nonsense we’ve come to expect, but it went in my favor, which is very un-dShitty.

Now that my Ego is under better control, I’ve switched back to missions on Rising Star. Not much going on here today, still need to check on the market, but didn’t. I do think that reducing my Ego has improved my rate of growth, though…definitely notice the difference in my Starbits.

I played my Splinterlands quest in the evening and although I struggled for a bit there, I ended the day having made some progress in the rankings. 👍

Got Earth splinter for my quest today and got it done well into Gold I. Looking like I’m on a solid pace for Diamond this season! 🤞

I decided to get five more packs with my SPS drop today. It was even more expensive than yesterday, but I did quite well and between the summoner, epic, and legendary I made more than my money back:

Still haven’t sold my vouchers, but kinda’ getting interested in PLM, so that’s at least one idea of how to invest the funds; still not one hundred percent, though.

Got my stats for the last week. Can’t say that it isn’t a double slap in the face with that broken streak day glaring there, and, what’s worse, showing that I averaged more sleep last week and right around my target! With how much sleep has been an issue, it’s only through sleeping my life away that that’s even possibly the case.
