[I don’t know if it’s that I set myself too ambitious goals for Thursdays and try to get too much done all at once or what, but I already feel like I’m completely behind on the day. Been trying to get my wallets cleaned up to work on the Solairitas post and get this post done as early as possible to try and get my errands done earlier than last week, but somehow time is slipping away from me.]

Pretty solid nine to five sleep schedule today, but with interruptions during the night I ended up another hour short. No rest for the wicked, though, had teaching today, so no time to drag. It was alright anyway, didn’t feel too tired.

Did some chatting on Discord, hit the faucets, did some curation, shifted tokens, all the usual morning routine. Cryptos are still holding up and we saw some more green candles, if not by much. MATIC broke back above two dollars and I gained back a little ground against ETH, but still kinda’ hurting with the FIRE loss (although it did go up by a whole penny per billion 😛).

I only just increased my Aave position, so even though I could handle a bit more risk I just left it to simmer for now (want to make sure these recent gains don’t get erased first). Otherwise, just the usual morning routine.

Got everything straight in my mind for what my goals for class(es) were today and then got my post set and scheduled and got on with getting stuff together for work. Although I was running a little late, I got out the door and on the road more or less on time.

The weekly PIMP meeting takes place while I’m driving, but I did listen in even though I couldn’t really participate. We ended pretty early since Witty had some technical difficulties and I jammed out to my favorites playlist the rest of the way.

The drive in was no problem and I got there early enough to use the restroom and have to stand outside the door…means I don’t seem to be able to get set up before class starts, which is somewhat annoying, but it is what it is.

We are actually in pretty good shape as far as material we’ve covered in Algebra, but there were a couple other definitions that we hadn’t gone over that we hit and then I showed them the Slide and Divide method for factoring quadratics…they’d all seen factoring in high school, but I don’t think any of them had seen that method (which is way more efficient).

Finished up class a few minutes early and headed out to the car for some lunch. Not sure what the issue was, but I simply couldn’t get any signal; either WiFi or 5G. 😡 I moved the car up to the top of the parking garage, but it wasn’t any better, so I drove out of the garage to the parking lot out front. Even then it was a serious struggle, but I was able to watch a couple minutes of choppy YouTube to kill the time.

Headed back in for Calculus and today we finally defined the derivative. We did a couple more examples of evaluating limits and then busted into the real deal. We derived the easier rules, like the derivative of a constant is zero, but I did end up proving the power rule (which is a fairly rough one, to be honest). Stayed after and helped a couple students and then headed home.

I pulled into the driveway about ten seconds before Wenche did and she made us an omelette for dinner and we searched around for something to watch. We ended up watching some old school Laugh-In for a while, but I still have the feeling that we need to find something else.

I came pretty close to a #DoubleDay and considered trying to finish it up, but between trying and failing to get my Splinterlands quest done and getting past bedtime, I just let it go and laid down.

Got plenty on the list for tomorrow, so we’ll have to see how it goes…the last two weeks I’ve given up and either gone to sleep or played Oculus. Hoping I’ll be able to be more disciplined this week.


Well, that was extremely short lived! For one whole day my dShitty income rose to a whopping twenty SIM, but now it’s back below even where it was before. 😡 I know I keep hanging on with this, and it’s been like over a year and nothing has improved…but there’s that trickle of HIVE that comes in that keeps me hanging on.

Went in and did a couple missions today on Rising Star, but otherwise nothing much going on. Still kinda’ thinking about jumping into that pool. 🤔

I don’t know, maybe it’s partly because I’m getting around to it too late, maybe partly because it just sucks, but despite playing (and having a bit of a win streak - which was nice) I simply couldn’t get a win with a sneak monster. 😡

I’m a full day behind on my quests now, but I did make a little progress in the rankings.

I just didn’t have the patience for it again today and just threw up my hands. No rewards for two days and not really caught back up on my DEC balance to maintain my SPS drop, so it’s been falling as well.

Staked my drop for the day but was pleased to see a slight rise in the price…was reflecting on the fact that I’m starting to be in a pretty solid position; a change of a penny means about four hundred bucks! 🤑

Vouchers had a nice pop today, up something like forty percent, so I jumped on the chance and sold half of what I had left on the market. So, got a bit more dry powder, but not blown the wad yet. Looking for a little continuation (hopefully) before selling out the rest.

Glad you stayed over to help a couple of students, calculus is never that simple for most people. Thanks for sharing and do enjoy an awesome Friday ahead :}
