  • Too Much Sleeping Lately

    With my sleep schedule being screwed up again, I find myself sleeping too much as if my body tries to compensate with the outside growing dark early. The hard part is that my mind has been to scattered as of late to be able to get myself into disciplined towards being productive in a single…

  • A Grind Of A Day

    Well, I finally did it. I completed a 2nd draft of my novel. While there are still gaps that I am aware of, the basic structure is reasonably solid and it ended where I think it should have. The effort though did cause my sleeping habits to become a bit off just because the stress…

  • Too Many Political Discussions

    I realized that I’ve been part of too many political discussions as of late. Despite writing about politics on my blog, I honestly prefer to avoid the subject altogether just because I find politicians overall to be obnoxious leeches whose soul purpose is to manipulate others to further their own secretive agendas. That said, I’m…

  • Puttering Here And There (Then Back Again)

    Yesterday ended up being a strange day. I guess with all the politics in the news, it’s almost impossible to concentrate on much else. In the end, I started to get a headache, which forced me to sleep earlier than I would have liked. However, I wasn’t able to get much done anyway.

  • Just A Little More

    Yesterday, I finished a major exercise in writing up much of the key points per chapter in my book summary document.

    Flashback initially was a lot of fun but I simply burnt out at the end. The problem I found was that not enough players were doing Flashback to spice up the economy. So for my main build, I simply could not afford the items and ended up burning out early. I tried to keep my…

  • Another Day Another Pondering

    Believe it or not, I actually keep track of time. Weekends do have some significance for me because they determine how bad traffic can be, how crowded a market might be as well as certain gaming parameters that are event driven.

  • 2020 Year Summary For Me

    2020 was obviously one of the most difficult years in recent recorded human history. The world experienced great tragedy with numerous losses along with incredible turmoil domestically (from an American’s viewpoint) and internationally. Despite what happened, my own year for the most part remained unscathed as far as personal tragedies. So I cannot say it…

  • Slow But Satisfying Day

    Last night, I managed to finish off William Gibson’s The Peripheral, which meant I would ultimately have a lot more spare time. Or at least a new project of my choosing. So I decided today, after having finished my pot roast, to finally get my crab legs and seafood boil on.

  • Cooking Vs Eating Out

    With my recent change in status to employment, I had been cooking more than ever. It was a big personal challenge and life goal of mine to make the transition from depending on fast, instant and frozen foods to becoming my own chef. The benefits have been massive in improving my confidence as an individual,…
