Oct. 26, 20: Recording Calculus Videos, Errands, Xbox, Laps, and Games

over 3 years ago

Well, up again at three this morning. 😡 Only an hour and a half short, so that’s something. It’s taking a toll on my motivation in all aspects, and I’m not exactly sure how to fix it. Best I could do was completely crash out for a few hours in the afternoon, wake up feeling like crap, and try to stay up later.

Got the morning routine done super early and decided to record a lecture video for my Calculus class. Been feeling kinda’ bad that I haven’t done more already. I covered optimization problems, got the videos uploaded and shared.

I made a mistake in the middle, so stopped the recording for a sec, but that turned out to make the upload process way faster and I didn’t have to wait for the whole thing at once. Got the one uploaded and then did the other one later. Still want to do a couple more, though...these are some of the more difficult problems and it helps to see examples.

Got the outline of my post done but needed to run some errands, so posted the basic structure and went out (still need to edit that properly - I have standards to uphold).

Headed into town and ran some errands. Hit up the smoke store and the puffity-puff store and did my civil act of self-defense: I voted (and not for either of those two clowns!).

After I got back and slept for a bit I played some Resident Evil 3 on the Xbox. Had yet another fight with the Nemesis boss and after a couple tries finally got past him for a nice cheevo. I got infected, though, and switched over from the female to the male character...at least he’s got more inventory space! 😛

Was starting to push toward bedtime and, slacker me, I had several thousand steps left to go for the day. Did a couple “kilometers” worth of laps around the house and watched the very cringe-worthy 60 Minutes interview with the Pres. That man DOES NOT represent me.

Once I’d gotten my steps in, I got ready for bed. We watched all of Man with a Plan already and just plowed through all of The Unicorn. 😢 I did keep myself awake for a while longer than usual and didn’t fall asleep until nearly ten! Hopefully that will start to push it back in line.

Been doing alright with the crime in my dCity the past few! 🤩 No jinx, no jinx!!! Still have a ways to go on saving up, but I don’t mind getting there a little faster. 😄

Nice to have that trickle coming in...can’t imagine what it’s like bat the top of the leaderboard making a shitton of actual HIVE each day...jealous, but I suppose it takes money to make money.

After an unsuccessful day yesterday, I did get all my Holybread tasks done. I think I’ve been missing out on the new dungeons and stuff. 🤔😭 Still, nearly every day I think how cool it is to get an upvote for playing.

Not been able to beat any of the guys in front of me, but still hanging on to top twenty. 🏆 They’re Talking about the possibility of another epic item event...really need items for my archer! 🤞

Not much happening in CryptoBrewmaster today. Other than having the server be down again when I went to play, just gathering the ingredients that are available.

As much as it ticks me off in principle, I think I’m going to buy the license to withdraw. It’s useless to have the tokens in-game since you spend more on ingredients than the brew is worth, so it seems selling on HE is the only way to get value out of the time spent.

Holy shite! I played today!!! 😱

If playing sucked before, now my summoners and monsters are all crippled and I still get pitted against people like 400 above me. 🤬

One win, two losses and it’s not fun. It’s seriously not fun to play anymore. I just don’t know...feel like I’m missing out somehow, just can’t seem to let it go.

Got my stats for the last week again today. First time in forever that I got some green arrows. Not only that, I scored ALL green arrows!! 💪 I’m not patting myself on the back too hard since beating the past few weeks isn’t necessarily saying all that much, but hey, it’s steps in the right direction.

Seems like the Fitbit streak count is back! 😁 It disappeared for a few days and I thought it was gone, but it’s back again...photos or it didn’t happen, right? 😜
