We went to bed super early last night (around eight or thereabouts) and slept all the way until six! That was nearly an hour over my full night goal! Had a tough time with motivation again, but definitely didn’t crash out. 😄

Did the usual morning routine and FIRE had risen quite nicely.

Decided to check the “value” of my Splinterlands collection and it’s gone nuts! If only that were really liquid funds…would be looking for something appropriately mid-life-crisis-y that goes zoom, zoom!

Been stressing that I still don’t have any classes listed for the next semester, so I wrote another follow up email to the department chair. She said I’m all set, it’s just the level above hasn’t entered it into the system yet. So, hopefully that’s all good.

Not a very productive day today otherwise, though, and looking back I’m struggling to even figure out where the whole day went!

After I got the morning routine done and posted my post, I hit that wall…tried to watch some tube, but my mind kept wandering to code. Should have probably just sat down and tried it, but I did turn the TV off and do some Google and YouTube searches. Still not a hundred percent certain…again, should prolly just try it.

I certainly can recall playing some Oculus, though. I finished another level on Ven (picked up nicely where I’d paused it the other day) and started into the next, but the difficulty level has escalated for serious now…like a series of ten to twelve nearly frame-perfect jumps in a row (or else reset and have to redo it)! It’s at these points that I always get stuck and give up…which is exactly what I did.

Played a couple songs on Beat Saber and cleared a new expert+ but it was slowed down. Then did a few jumps on Rush. Still doing quite well so far on that, but I can only tolerate so much of the motion before I have to quit.

Seems like my dShitty income (guesstimate) is slowly rising, but today the excuse was General Crime. I think that’s one of my favorite ones, just screw everyone at once.

Went in on CryptoBrewmaster and collected the water I set going yesterday. That was the last ingredient I needed and I got a brew done. Just a regular lager again; got it sold out and nearly up to 80 CBM I could withdraw now. Still haven’t, though.

I did more lessons than missions today on Rising Star, but I’m struggling to reduce my Ego for some reason. 😡 Still just trying to save up again, but I seem to have fallen back in the rankings closer to five hundred again.

It was finally the end of the Splinterlands season. However, I kept getting pinged from their discord that everything was borked, so I waited and didn’t mess around with it until later.

Not too shabby on the season rewards this time! Didn’t get the greatest cards, but a few alright ones…but I got a massive chunk of DEC, over four thousand! Will sit on that and hopefully maintain my SPS drop somewhat.

I got really short on time, but I got all my brawls entered. Did terrible, though. 😭 Got reset all the way back to the bottom of Gold and it’s usually frustrating playing right after, but I was more than frustrated with the daily quest having sat there for like four days.
