Feb. 25, 22: Routine, Oculus, Pizza Trivia, TV, and Games

Got up kinda’ early this morning. Well, four thirty is earlier than I would have liked to have been up either way. Was more than an hour short tonight, and I felt it bigtime in the afternoon. I did fight through it and resisted the all-encompassing desire to lay down, but the motivation level was definitely hovering around nill.

The morning routine was usual for the most part, but at least the crypto markets were showing some signs of recovery! Back up nearly fifteen percent! Trouble is: down fifteen percent and up fifteen percent don’t balance out, still down overall. However, better than yesterday either way.

I’m still very seriously considering just getting out of Polygon. I think right now is a really stupid time to do it, but I think if we get back above where we were I might just move everything over into the Hive ecosystem. Less stress in general and much better interest rates.

Mostly just the normal stuff otherwise. Tried again to get my H-E wallets cleaned up, but to no avail. Eventually I had to stop and do my post. Got it done and shared and then couldn’t help but jump into VR and try another escape room on Escape Legacy.

I finished one three stars, but got wicked stuck on the next one. The puzzle difficulty has seriously ramped up, but as I was afraid, all the rooms and puzzles are very similar. It is still only AppLab, so I’m hoping they’ll keep expanding on it, but it certainly has been worth the tiny $3 it cost.

Quit out and grabbed some lunch and hit the wall hard. I really needed to focus and get that recommendation letter done that I had procrastinated on and I really wanted to work on the website as well, but all I could think of was taking a nap.

We did get a little snow overnight. Not enough to justify shoveling the whole driveway, but enough to make the front walk treacherous, so I got suited up and went out to take care of that. The fresh air, cold, and exercise helped to get the blood flowing again and I sort of got something kind of done.

Hopped over to Pizza Discord for Trivia Night. Started off pretty bad and didn’t get like the first four or five, but then it picked up! 😁 Between Trivia and airdrops and all that I had a nice withdrawal again. I did go in and buy and stake a bit more pizza as well.

After Trivia they played Crab Game. Seems like fun, but it’s on Steam and I don’t think I have that set up…or actually, I think I might but have no clue what the password is, so even worse. Should probably see about getting that straightened out so I can join in.

Wenche got home from work and made us steaks and veggies and curly fries for dinner and we watched out the rest of Pretty Hard Cases. Absolutely just plowing through series at this point…constantly having to search for something else. 😢 First world problems, I suppose.

Although I never did sit down at the computer, I did get myself to focus and just used Pages on the phone to write the recommendation letter and export the pdf. It looked okay, the formatting was alright (despite formatting being a struggle in Pages - or Word - in general) and I got it submitted. I also tried to renew my Libertarian Party of Michigan membership, but I got fired a database error. 😡 Had like three or four things that have been sitting in my inbox as ToDo’s that I was trying to get cleared. Didn’t succeed, but one of them is crossed off anyway.

That was pretty much it. Played a ton of Splinterlands but basically just kept losing in and out of Diamond and finally got fed up that I couldn’t seem to get my quest done.

Started to crash super hard and so got ready for bed, but I had like three thousand steps left for the day. 🤬 Full disclosure, I didn’t cheat for all of them, but there was some shaking while lying down half asleep that did happen.

[Realized that I’ve forgotten the last few days to switch up the POSH tag. I guess I’ll give #CCC a go. In the past they’ve commented on my posts saying they like to see more content like mine, so I assume my posts are creative enough to qualify to use the tag but I saw it as worthless…turns out that was my fault, since the tag is #creativecoin and #CCC doesn’t actually do anything. I wouldn’t mind earning some BEE and I hear that #hive-engine is actually a legit general tag, but for now it doesn’t seem appropriate to me, not actually posting about hive-engine per se.]

For real, do not ask me what the hell is going on with dShitty, ‘cus I just dunno. It still says my income should be zero, but I actually got a whole fifteen SIM. 😱 I guess that means fifteen words this time: dShitty is a fantastic way to take some money and make it disappear into nothingness.

Went I a couple times today on Rising Star. Like I figured, I’m right on the borderline now, so been having to switch back and forth between lessons and missions to keep my Ego down. I do have some Starbits saved, might be time to check the market again.

Well, dangit! As usual, my grandiose plans of finishing my Splinterlands quest in the morning before I have to start working on my post have gone down the tubes. I played quite a bit, actually, enough to get frustrated and rage quit.

So, unfortunately, no rewards for today. Going to have to try and finish it up before this evening so the reset doesn’t get late again. I kind of expected that today would be rough after yesterday’s smooth sailing, but that was painful. I guess switching from Snipe quest to Death splinter didn’t really help me that much.

Otherwise, staked my SPS drop for the day. Was shy by a bit in comparison with yesterday, but fairly close to stable. Vouchers dropped pretty hard, so just sat tight with those.
