Mar. 9, 22: Routine, PIMP Meeting, Oculus, TV, and Games

[Honestly, not sure what my deal is…in a funk, depressed, dunno…maybe just tired? Either way, kinda’ wanting to just phone this one in today…not really a whole lot going on and I don’t feel like trying to drag it out to a thousand words. We’ll see, my feeling that the post was worth an upvote hangs in the balance.]

Up at four thirty again and another hour short on sleep. 😭 Not digging this pattern…and it’s taking its toll. But, so far been fighting through the afternoons and while not productive, I haven’t crashed out.

Did all the usual morning routine and a bit of chatting over on Discord. Cryptos were about in the same place as before, but we did see a solid spike up today! BTC went all the way from $38.5k to $42.5k [but it looks like it’s given it all back again].

YouTube and all the news is, of course, Ukraine. The only time I hear about COVID now is remarks that we don’t hear about COVID any more. 😛😂 Not too much else going on otherwise. Shifted nearly all of my H-E tokens and got almost everything staked up on both accounts and then got my post done for the day…new tag: #thgaming! 👍😁😁

Speaking of THGaming, we had our weekly PIMP meeting today and we heard quite a lot from him again. Lots of work going on there and floating ideas…nice to be in early, hopefully it will pan out, so far so good!

I do have to admit that I’ve been smoking like a madman the last three or four days…to the point that it makes me feel bad as well as making my chest hurt. So dumb, but the more I think about quitting (or at least cutting back) the more I seem to smoke? [Even this morning, trying to be mindful and cut back, I’m on the exact same pace…half a pack before this post is even posted. 🤬] Wenche set a date to quit: the fifteenth, not sure if I’m smoking for her as well or what. Need to find something else to do while I do my morning routine other than sitting down in the basement puffing like a chimney.

Really, that was about the full extent of my productivity for the day. I made myself feel bad, but barely wrestled with the idea of trying to work and instead did the ol’ escapist thing and played VR. That ate a lot of time, actually…started on a new four hundred piece puzzle on Puzzling Places and got it about halfway done! Most of the sorting is already done and I’ve defined almost the entire outline.

Been feeling a bit guilty that I’ve gotten several new games recently and didn’t finish them, just jumped to the next, plus I was frustrated with Escape Legacy, so I played some more UNBINARY. The motion started to get to me, though, and it was about time for Wenche to get home, so I quit out.

Spent about forty-five minutes trying to find something for us to watch. I did find one or two shows that I’d like to check out, but didn’t think Wenche would be interested. We ended up watching a comedy special, which was alright, but then we pretty much both were tired and went to bed early.

For real? Just gotta’ throw a fire in there do ya, dShitty? That doesn’t hurt me. Your crime and crises are ineffectual shouting into the howling wind of the overwhelming, built-in, by-design shittiness.

Can’t seem to shake the drunks on Rising Star these days. Still been switching back and forth between lessons and missions, but I’m just guessing where my Ego actually is at this point. Still haven’t turned this game into any sort of profit or benefit to my Hive account other than having a section to prattle on about every day…need to try and make this time worth something.

Well, made a bit of progress on HashKings, I guess, made some changes, anyway. I suppose that I didn’t actually have an avatar (was playing with Chocolatoso’s - which bothered me because the display name was wrong, but it was written off as glitchy alpha). I got the avatar from Pizza today, though, and when I equipped it it displayed my name properly.

Glad a waited to smoke that joint…when I switched avatar my XP went to zero and I had to start again. 😡. I’m not sure, maybe that XP did get credited to me once I smoked another joint today? Either way, I’m up to level three now.

Got some more BUDS from Pizza as well, but the crafting on mobile doesn’t work, so I’ll have to go on desktop to try that.

Not sure what happened to my plant there…was looking healthier before. 🤷 Three days left:

Played my Splinterlands quest in the evening as usual, so usual that predictive text basically wrote that entire sentence. 😜 Not too bad today, though, made some solid progress! 😁

Still have about five days left in the season and broke into Diamond! 💪 Might I be able to make it to Diamond II this go round? 🤞

I had Death splinter for my quest today, but wasn’t having it and got Earth instead, which was definitely better! Got the quest done in Diamond III and got modest rewards; got another pack at least:

The pack was ok, nothing spectacular, but it all adds up to big deck power (and airdrop points)!

Speaking of airdrop, my SPS drop fell hard the last few days. Been playing to keep my DEC income up, but not enough I suppose. Still just been staking up all that I get and I didn’t make any moves as far as vouchers go either.
