Slept nine to six today, so not bad at all! But with the hardcore snoring and the cat, it ended up pretty broken and about half an hour or so short. Seems like it’s been quite some time since I’ve been able to say I got more than a full night. 😢

Not a whole lot interesting to note regarding the morning routine. Did all the usual stuff and then got into a bit of an argument on Discord about the validity of so-called vote trading services on chain. The Pizza server was unusually quiet and I pretty much ended up thinking out loud to myself about black holes…got a theory that I come back to from time to time regarding this universe being inside a black hole (the math suggests so) and that the universe looks to us like it’s expanding because we are collapsing. Didn’t really make any forward progress or anything, just rehashing old ideas.

There weren’t all that many dishes in the dishwasher, but I decided to stay on top of it and did the dishes in the sink and ran the washer anyway. Cleaned up my lunch area that had bread crumbs everywhere, and then got on with working on my post.

Got my post done and published and shared and all that and then working on the website sort of crossed my mind, but I didn’t sit down and do anything. 😡

Wenche had an appointment, so I had the house to myself for a while and I jumped into VR to play some more Escape Legacy. Finished a couple that I got stuck on on easy and then tried on normal. As I said, though, it is a bit repetitive, so I hope they release some other levels with some other puzzle mechanics.

I guess after last Wednesday’s PIMP meeting, I was pretty impressed with THGaming and I went in to take a gander at the pool. Witty’s been going in hard, which also got me interested. It has some obscure rewards, but whatever, the rate was looking juicy and I went in and started buying up the scraps of liquidity left after Witty’s rampage. I’m into it now just about even with the others, more or less about fifty bucks in each of the pools. I do feel like I’m overexposed and not getting the bang for my buck in the DEC pool, but just can’t let go of the airdrop points.

Cryptos did show some continued recovery, although modest, and it still really hurts to check in on my Aave investment. At least what little I get is pure interest and not risking liquidation at all or being eaten by the borrow interest cost. Almost decided, though, on the next rally I’m thinking I’m going to bridge out and put it into Hive stuff.

Noticed that my baldness was looking particularly noticeable, so shaved my head properly and jumped in the shower. The wife jumped in not long after. 😉

Other than that, though, not much going on today. Mainly just relaxing. We watched a movie about a future where AI runs the world, like BigBug, I think. I watched the whole thing and didn’t fall asleep, but man it was mostly just weird.

There’s a new restaurant opening in town and we were thinking about trying to check them out for dinner, but they’re still in soft opening and weren’t open for dinner, so Wenche made us an omelette for dinner.

Once again we’ve plowed through everything worth watching and are on the hunt again (hence the rando AI movie)…wish there was more Good Place or a show like that. 😢

I really considered going out for a walk this morning in spite of the cold. I was even going to start getting ready, but I hadn’t even started on my post yet and that served as a quick and easy excuse. It’s been too long and keeping my streak going properly has become more difficult than it should be…used to often have my ten thousand before ten in the morning!

Speaking of which, I was actually quite close to finishing my steps when I started getting ready for bed. Almost all were legit for the day, but I did shake a couple hundred before falling asleep.

[Do have to admit that the ability to drag out a day where nothing happens into a thousand word post has become quite a skill.]

Perhaps, as long as they continue to tell me my daily dShitty income is zero, they think I’ll be thankful that I actually got something? Some kind of trying to convince us that it isn’t insanely shitty? Well, for today it’s three again: dShitty upsets me.

I actually remembered Rising Star a couple times today, and while I’m still switching back and forth between missions and lessons, that has successfully kept my Ego under control and I’m finally edging up on level fifty. I think it’s still five more levels after that before the next mission unlocks, though, so still a way to go.

Went in to Splinterlands several times today as well. Didn’t make too much progress as far as ranking goes, but I was able to catch up on my daily quests.

I’d planned to go back in early this morning and finish my Death quest from yesterday, but I ended up using the morning doing other stuff and didn’t really feel like it before I worked on my post. I did go back in a little later and get it done a couple hours before it was due to reset. A couple rares and a bit of DEC, but nothing major:

Went back in again in the evening and got three wins without neutral monsters for my quest today. Got it done in Diamond III as well, but just commons and potions:

Staked my SPS, as is habit, and even though vouchers were down pretty bad, my liquid funds were basically all spent and so I sold a couple more. Still got most of them still there that I pulled out, but I’m really getting crazy about the THGaming pool and am considering pulling some more vouchers out. 🤔
