Feb. 8, 22: Routine, Water Meter, Crashing, Oculus, TV, and Games

[Dang it! I have no idea how I manage to get such a late start on my post; especially considering I know I need to get it done early, but the morning flies! 😳 As usual, going to try and get as much done as I can in the hopes of keeping my record of not really shitposting every day for years. We’ll see how it goes, got the basic structure and pics uploaded reasonably fast and chewing up some words with this meta bit 😛, so there might be a chance.]

Not too bad on sleep tonight, relatively speaking, made it nine thirty to five thirty with just shy of an hour short of actual sleep. It definitely wasn’t enough to make up for what I lost last night, though, and my motivation level was at zero and I dragged hard in the afternoon.

Got on with the usual morning routine and it was quite noteworthy to see a solid up spike in the price of BTC! Popped up over $45k, but came back from that nearly immediately. Still, we seem to be holding between $43k and $44k, which is significantly healthier than we were when it was looking like we might test $30k not long ago. 👍

HIVE was still up quite nicely, but seemed to have already popped (preemptively) and didn’t follow BTC as much as one might hope. MATIC, on the other hand, got on a horse. I’m still hurting relative to ETH, but the value of my collateral was back up to a very healthy state and I decided to increase my position. Although I could have gone in twice as hard, I backed it off and played it conservative. Still, even though I’m not where I was before the pullback, glad to be back to earning interest on a somewhat larger balance again.

Otherwise, mostly just the same old stuff…shifted some H-E tokens, did some curation, checked the SOL market (and, sadly, found a member selling out all their tokens 😢 so made all those adjustments), and then worked on my post. Got it done and shared and then needed to get ready for workmen to come.

We got a notice from the village that we were due for our water meter to be replaced. I was on call for jury duty last week, though, and couldn’t guarantee that I’d be home so I’d scheduled it for today. Did a bit of cleaning and tidying up to get ready for strangers to be in the house and make it easy for them to get to the old meter. They were here for about an hour or so and boom, got a new digital meter.

Got some lunch after the guys left and the hit that wall. I mean, I was toast…didn’t want to do anything! I put on something or other, oh a comedy special, but I was out after just a couple minutes. I only ended up sleeping for like a half an hour or so, which was kind of weird, but at least I didn’t feel terrible when I got up.

Even so, it wasn’t like I was going to get any work done despite knowing that I should and that if I didn’t I would feel bad about myself. Wasn’t going to happen. Instead, it was Oculus time.

It had been a few days since I played UltraWings, so I thought I’d give it another go and see how long it would take before I started to feel sick. One mission. The answer was one mission. I did it fine, but the swinging movement where your brain is telling your body to expects to feel g-forces, but it doesn’t and it gets all confused. I thought at least two, but I started to sweat and everything already, so I didn’t push it.

Switched over to Puzzling Places for a while and worked on a couple versions of a puzzle 🧩 I didn’t realize I hadn’t started on. Got the fifty piece version done and a little more than half of the one hundred piece version and then Wenche got home.

She made us yummy turkey taco salad for dinner and we watched the rest of Murderville. That was entertaining, but dang, done in like two days! 😱

I had a shitton of steps left to go, so I did do a little marching, but tired out on that real quick. Laid down and cheated to finish while we started watching The Woman in the House Across the Street from the Girl in the Window.

I made it through the first episode or so, but then gave up trying and Wenche put on her sappy show and I was out.

[Well, hey! Looky that. I did get it done fairly decent in time…now I’m very behind on getting ready for work. 😂]

No crime or crises today in my dShitty. Still only got four SIM, but it looks like we might have a slight trend reversal? I’m not holding my breath; even if it does go up, shittiness, uh, finds a way.

Really nothing new or interesting going on with Rising Star today. Got in a couple missions and that was it. I’m back up over fifty thousand Starbits again, so might go trolling the market here soon. Kind of considering pulling some out and trying the PIZZA:STARBITS pool, but haven’t pulled the trigger yet.

Because I got such a late start playing Splinterlands yesterday, it was late again before I could reset. Enough so that I really didn’t have the desire to play. Couple that with winning one out of five battles and you have the perfect recipe for a rage quit.

I considered trying to get it done before I started working on my post, but even choosing not to I’ve gotten a late start, so I guess I’ll just have to leave it until this evening and try to get caught up.

I did get my brawl participation reward and had enough to get another Gladiator pack. Was alright:

Nothing particularly interesting with either SPS, just staked, or vouchers. Just hoping for a pop in the price here sometime soon…
