Man, I don’t know what my deal is this morning…it’s already quarter past nine and I’m only just now getting started on this post and for some reason I’m just not feeling it today (as I sit here on the toilet in misery for the fourth day in a row 😭).

I did, at least, sleep fairly well again last night. Made it from around nine or so until seven for a half an hour above my sleep goal. I have to say that I am glad that I’ve been sleeping solidly, it’s not for feeling tired so much as it is still unmotivated. Hard to focus on much of anything when everything from the waist down is burning (inside and out).

Anyway, not much of anything to note about the morning routine. Just did the usual stuff I do every day, minus sending my Wombat into the dungeon…hate the in-between time; not sure why it takes an entire week to reset the thing, it’s not like they didn’t have a month to get the next season ready. 🤷

Been playing quite a bit of War Alliance working toward the 500 games NFT goal as well as keeping on top of Arkheim (still about thirty levels left to go to get that NFT) and Vikings (just unlocked the palace level twenty challenge, now it’s level twenty-eight and the going is a lot slower).

I also only have like three more kingdoms to clear for Dice Dreams, but that one is kind of limited to playing more or less once a day and doesn’t pay WomBucks for play time so I don’t get to play it as much as I’d like to (have to wait for it to refill) but it’s not that much of a loss.

I don’t have any more NFT challenges left for King’s Throne, done them all, but it does pay quite a bit for playtime, so that one definitely helps to get the daily goals. I did pretty well on the last exchange, got like $1.87 in EOS…makes about $5 I’ve made altogether…not getting rich, but also just playing games and building my NFT collection (and mining power) as I go.

I guess one noteworthy thing was that today was Pizza Power Up Day and I’d been smart and bought the three hundred PIZZA for the NFT several days ago (before everyone pumps the price thirty percent buying at once) and got it powered up. Otherwise, shifted tokens, checked the SOL market, chatted on Discord a bit, all the usual. The crypto markets are still trading sideways, range-bound and boring.

Worked on my post for the day and got a solid one done, but like I said then, getting a bit tired of complaining so much. I guess it’s just taking me longer to fully recover from being so sick than I’d really like…knock on effects of not having eaten properly and not having slept (although the sleep is fine now I’m willing to say).

Got it done and shared and then decided to head out for a walk with the dog. He seemed to want to turn around about halfway, but I kept going and he was running ahead of me most of the way (so I suppose he felt alright). I let him pick the route on the way back and he wanted to add on an extra block which put us over five kilometers for a “proper” walk today! 💪

Was a bit chilly for my tastes, but the sun was shining and it was pretty comfortable…not too hot for the dog nowadays.

The Fall colors are definitely starting to set in and the leaves are beginning to give up the ghost.

It’s a fairly rare occurrence, but I saw a snake 🐍 today! 😯 It was sunning itself on the path and the doggy walked right past it. I nearly did too, just looked like one of the twigs on the ground, but I realized it right at the last second. It held still and let me take a couple shots:

I’m not sure, but I think it’s a milk snake; the markings are similar to a garter snake, but all brown instead of green and yellow.

I watched some YouTube videos already starting to get ready for teaching Calculus next week and then it was time for Pizza Trivia Night! 🥳 Was kind of weird, I almost didn’t want to play…felt really bad that I hadn’t accomplished anything all day. Still, it was fun and I did ok, got like four PIZZA or so.

While that was going on, I cleaned up in the kitchen and emptied the dishwasher and did the dishes in the sink so that I felt like I sort of did something (but I didn’t actually sit down at the computer at all 😢).

I had some cereal for dinner again (was kind of wondering if eating the same thing might be part of what’s doing my tummy in, but trying to get some fiber to get some “regularity” as it were).

Wenche had a nail appointment after work and didn’t get home till late, so I got ready for bed pretty early and watched a couple episodes of The League before falling asleep.

Of course, if it’s not one thing on dShitty, it’s another. Shopping Mall got robbed today, but it doesn’t seem to have had all that much effect. Can’t get much worse than it is, I suppose.

Another day, another mission on Rising Star. My Ego is still under control, so I’m keeping at it until it’s not.

Nearly forgot about HashKings…in fact, I did forget about it all day today. I pre-emptively deleted the pics I’ve been recycling in the expectation that I would get it taken care of today, but I didn’t and I can’t be bothered, so whatever.

Well, there it is. The Splinterlands season has come and gone, not a single daily chest nor one season chest earned, and as the cherry 🍒 on top of the sundae…drumroll…Bronze. 🤬🤬🤬🤬

Claimed my SPS interest for the day and decided to pull the liquid I had out. Didn’t swap it yet, though, and I still have those vouchers sitting that I pulled out the other day as well…just looking for a little pop on the price to take advantage of but thinking I’m probably going to stake for the next couple days.
