Sept. 28, 20: Rainy Day Indoors, Writing a Calculus Exam, Laps, TV, and Games

over 3 years ago

Up and not so at ‘em twenty before six and an hour and a quarter short. Win some, lose some. I didn’t drag so bad that I had to take a nap, but the motivation to accomplish much of anything (even a proper walk) is essentially null.

Did the usual morning routine. Not much going on, really. The last few days I already moved over my BLURT and STEEM and sold them to HIVEP. Got more sitting there now on HE than really makes me feel comfortable (it IS an exchange after all), but I haven’t decided what I want to do with it.

I really like BRO, but I’ve been buying a lot of that lately and it’s gotten even more costly...need DEC, but don’t want to put any more money into that...like ARCHON but then spent is spent and not really earning (except stake rewards)...dunno.

When PeakD last updated, they changed the color for dark mode. For some reason, the top banner remained cached in the old color even after resetting the browser. I didn’t think too much of it, but figured that was a relatively easy fix, so I cleared my cache.

It worked! The color is correct now...BUT it erased all my PeakLock data AND all my Hivesigner data, so I had to go back and re-setup all of those accounts. 😖 I also lost my login information for LBRY for some reason, but I reset the password and got back in again. Next time, I’ll remember how important the cache is.

Spent some time DMing with a dev over on Discord throwing around ideas for our super top secret project. Some things are starting to come into focus and I have a particular direction (identified a certain weakness in my coding skills) to research. 🤓

It’s one thing to ask a dev to do something you want and have them do it, it’s a whole other thing to understand what they did or how they did it. I want to know anywho. 😜

Did my post for the day and then played a bit more Division on the Xbox. No cheevos today, pretty much just grinding out side missions and snagging collectibles for later ones.

I realized that I’d procrastinated too long on the Calculus exam!!! 🤭 It was supposed to be available this morning, but I hadn’t even written it! 🤫 So, as it was necessary to do so, I sat down and got it done. I just set the due date back a day cause it was my bad, not theirs, so they shouldn’t get cut short.

Played my Splinterlands quest pretty early cause I didn’t want to get all tense and annoyed before bed, so it was nice to just grab myself a couple chicken wraps I made for dinner and then look toward laying down to watch some boob tube.

It was another one of those days where I’m basically set for bed but still have thousands of steps to go for the day. 😡 Even though it was cold and rainy all day, that’s not enough excuse to break my streak. I’m nearly to my all-time record now! 💪

It was enough, I figured, to count towards my exercise goal for the week, so I fired up the Fitbit and did some laps around the house.

LOL 😂 I totally forgot to turn it off when I finished, so it kept counting all night long. 😝

After I got my steps in, I was set for bedtime and watched a little bit of Sinbad on TV before falling asleep...got some research to do tomorrow. ☺️

I guess it was round about time for my dCity to get robbed again. 😢 This time was my Bank, super harsh. 😭 It’s basically a one in five chance at this point, so I’m not terribly surprised.

Got my Holybread tasks done today, though! 🙂 Arena is getting hard again, seriously. Still, got the arena task done relatively early in the day and didn’t have to worry about it.

Still hanging onto top ten, but I have a feeling my position is precarious. Starting to see some opponents I haven’t seen in a while that I can’t seem to beat.

Got all the CryptoBrewmaster ingredients I needed for a brew today. Had to leave it overnight, though, so I’ll sell it out in the morning.

With only a day or so left in the season, I was actually able to make a little more progress toward Champion III.

My quest for today was Water splinter. I think I’m telegraphing my splinters pretty bad, but even so I did alright.

I was able to get enough DEC for one last quest potion so completed the quest in Diamond I with a charge. Rewards are what they are. At least I got an epic, even though I’ll likely not ever use it, and I was also able to level up the Centauri Mage trading a life for a damage point:

Got my stats for the last week. I can tell from my daily averages that I’ve been sliding, but dangit! This is like the third week in a row with mad red arrows. Not diggin’ the trend here...even below a hundred thousand steps for the week, that rarely happens! 😳😡
