[Well, shit. Two days later and I still can’t stop tripping composing my letter to acidyo once my stake rivals his…such a waste of mental energy. 😡 In time, though, in time I will vote whomever I please for whatever reason I please and he will impose his vision (or, rather, lack thereof) on me at his own peril. However, today is not that day and I’d much rather be thinking about something productive. Wenche is working this weekend, so we’re going to head in this morning to get the groceries done, so going to post the skeleton of my post early and edit later.]

Up at five this morning, so not too bad, but I was up later than usual and still ended up an hour short on sleep. My tummy was killing me and by the time I went to the bathroom I was just awake. 😭

As is demonstrated by the opening of my post, still been having a tough time focusing…my mind won’t quit recycling through the same idea (and my tummy won’t quit churning). Still, tried to get on with my usual morning routine.

Not really much interesting going on there. Cryptos still trading more or less sideways and vouchers are still down too hard for me to sell, so I don’t really have any liquid to play with. 😭 Mostly just shifted H-E tokens, got caught up on Discord, all the usual stuff.

Wenche had the day off today (she’s working over the weekend), and it was quite nice out, and it had been forever since we’d taken the dog out for a walk, so we headed out for a bit.

Pretty darn nice summer day if you ask me, but I think my other two companions were of the opinion that it was a little too warm. I complain all winter 🥶 so no complaints from me now! Only four kilometers, though, so I guess it doesn’t count as a “proper” walk, but better than nothing, for sure! 💪

We mostly stayed on the sidewalk/pavement, but I did get a chance to do some bug hunting! 😁 Saw a ton of little white butterflies and a grasshopper, but they were too quick to get a shot. There were a ton (more than I’ve ever seen in one place) of the bright red beetles:

They were chawing down on the milkweed leaves:

Caught these two doin’ tha’ dirty!

There were a bunch of earwigs all congregated down in the shade of the leaves, but not the best pic:

This one was really disappointing. That would have been an awesome shot with the bee and the bright flower, but the wind kept moving the stalk and I couldn’t get focus before it flew away. 😭

Little caterpillar 🐛 going for a stroll:

Only got a couple days left of early access for Into the Radius, so I jumped in and played for a while. The left analog stick is still kind of annoying, but it doesn’t seem to be quite as bad as it was, so it’s mostly tolerable for now. Unfortunately, the headset strap clasp broke today too. 😡 Seems like the damn thing is set to self-destruct after a year or so. 🤬 Not sure whether to try and start replacing stuff or just wait for the Quest 3 to come out.

Anyway, the alarm went off, so I quit out and went over for Pizza Trivia Night! 🥳 Tonight was a tough one for “B” 😂, and as a member of the B-team, I didn’t do all that well. Still, won like three PIZZA and had fun, so it was totally worth it. 👍😀

I grabbed some leftovers for dinner since the steaks hadn’t quite thawed out and watched about half of the Bob’s Burgers movie before falling asleep pretty early.

[Hooray! Lucky me. Acid decided to come harass me on this post as well, figured it was a matter of time…smoking like a chimney right now. Oh, well, he believes my business is his business, so asking him to simply leave me alone is fruitless. I’ve got a notification ping and like every one for the last two days, I’m scared to look. 😡]

Ahhh, we are at maximum shittiness saturation levels on dShitty now. We have a crisis, but it can have no more effect…what’s it going to do, make my income more negative? (Well, yes, actually. 😛)

Did just the one mission on Rising Star today, but my Ego was still zero and I was able to keep at them. Really got no goals with this any more…the ones I did have are unrealistic in this lifetime, so I don’t know. Just let it sit and do what it’s doing, I guess.

I was home for most of the day and so probably could have taken care of HashKings, but I didn’t. Pretty sure my plants are dead, but hopefully not.

Didn’t have even the least desire to play Splinterlands today. I went in and staked my SPS drop, but that was it.

Speaking of the SPS drop, there’s like ten days left…better look out for a sharp drop in the value of DEC, when like myself, nearly everyone can breathe a sigh of relief and get out of the pool…there’s going to be some major dumpage, I feel it.
