Today was a fairly chill day and while I stayed at home indoors for the most part, I did get a few things done.

Slept all the way until six this morning and having fallen asleep about eight thirty last night, I registered a full, solid eight hours plus a couple minutes!!!! 🥳 I think the last time that happened was two weeks or so ago! Can’t say that I made back any of what I’ve lost recently, and I wasn’t motivated to work on any projects, but I didn’t drag nearly as hard in the afternoon as I have been.

Did the usual morning routine and was glad to find MATIC rising even further against ETH. The markets in general had a bit of an upward bump, although BTC is still in a danger zone and I’m hearing calls for $30k 😱. HIVE held fairly stable around $1.5, but still not tested the resistance at $1.6. Otherwise, I did the dishes in the sink and started early on the laundry.

We usually do our grocery shopping on Sunday, and I kinda’ planned on it, but ended up justifying not having to go yet. I did do a quick walk down to the store to do a return on a foot care item I bought that was exploded in the package.

Speaking of which, my foot is still really bad. Been trying to treat it several times a day and keep clean socks on, but I’m not sure it’s getting much better. I turned all the socks inside out and washed them twice, once on “sanitize” and then again on “regular.” Wenche had done some yesterday as well, so there wasn’t that much, just three small loads.

Got my post done and shared and all that. Still very frustrated that the Brofund bot hasn’t been fixed. It’s been like four months or more now. It skipped me yesterday for some unknown reason and then voted me way later, so I figured the timing would be fucked up anyway and I posted at ten to reset the clock…got skipped as expected, but at least I’m back to not having to wait as long. Nearly every day I’ve done my post and it’s ready but I can’t get on with doing other stuff because I have to sit there killing time waiting to post. 😡

I’d really hoped that I would have the motivation to get some work done on the website, but I didn’t even get the computer out. 😢 Still trying to decompress from the last week, and Song in the Smoke was calling to me anyway.

Played that for quite a bit…made a lot of progress and moved on to the next area where I almost immediately got killed and lost ALL that progress (it doesn’t auto save, so it reset back to the last manual save and I had to do it completely over again). Lesson learned…obsessively saving all progress now! I spent more time in the current area this time and made some clothing items and upgrades before moving on. I died almost immediately again, but at least this time I didn’t lose so much…spent too much time looking for a place to build a campfire and night fell…at least I have all the stuff gathered for it already, just need to build it quicker, before nightfall.

I did start to drag in the evening, but I didn’t fall asleep. I did chillax and lay down, though. Watched Puffer, a documentary about the Great Barrier Reef from the perspective of a baby puffer fish. Was awesome! They used some macro lenses and time lapse to show some fantastic creatures that are too small and/or too slow for us to really see. 😄 Afterwards I got back up for a bit, grabbed some cereal for dinner, and got properly ready for bed.

I watched an episode or two of the new season of Big Mouth and fell asleep round about eight thirty again.

Well, no surprise that after yesterday’s not so shitty income making up (somewhat) for the previous shittiness, dShitty would be right back to it. Got to make sure there’s at least a robbery or something, otherwise the token price might collapse! 🤪

Didn’t even make good on the BEER today. Way to be even more shitty!

I seem to have gotten myself reagitated about CryptoSuckmaster. Forgot to go in and try to get the CBM out until just now…will probably forget again the instant I finish this part of my post. Regardless, it sucks how little that time and effort is worth.

Just the same ol’ on Rising Star. I did a couple missions and that was about it. Still got forever until the next mission unlocks…and then what? Another forever until the next mission, whoopee!

I still don’t really have any desire to play Splinterlands, well, I want to, but it sucks and is frustrating and I’m not earning, just losing mostly. I did make a little progress, but fucking stuck in Silver still. More of a forced “break” than anything else the last few days, but it got far enough along that I don’t care anymore, whatever, I missed a couple potions too bad.

Otherwise, I put in my guild brawls for this go round (also in Silver 🤬) and that was it…even forgot to claim my SPS drop yesterday and today…still sitting there, so it’s alright.

I finally just gave up on getting back to Gold to finish the Fire quest that’s been sitting for days. Got some pretty good cards, at least:

I wanted to finish my Earth quest for today, but started losing further back down into Silver and got pissed off and rage quit.

I’m still really tempted to dump out my vouchers, but hate to do it at such a relatively low price. It’s unclaimed value just sitting there, though, which aggravates me to no end. Should probably try and get whatever I can out of them.
