24 hours per day.
That’s all you get in a day. No more, no less. Everyone else in the world gets exactly the same number of hours per day. All the rich people, all the poor people have the same time. Sure, maybe they have access to resources that could allow them better use of their time (both relatively and absolutely), but all the same they better make them count…!
Periodic haul of goods…
New tapestry (:
Week’s not too bad but had a bunch of stuff to do for work so I’d wake up at 05:00 to get ready to leave the house for work and come back at 20:00-21:00… It’s not a good excuse to work out but it is what it is. Just gotta sleep ASAP when I come home late instead of goofing off. After all I get 1.5 hours to goof off on the way home from work so… goof off then? Hmm..
I’ve left my phone off for about 24 hours now? Maybe I can break the tendency to piss away hours on it (famous last words). For now my ‘break’ routine will be to jump in bed and roll around hugging one of my dakimakuras. There’s supposed to be some shit where you actually need to give your brain a break when taking a break, and using your phone/pc to look for shit/entertainment is not taking a break as far as it involves engaging your brain (and some other shit about dopamines).
I think we’re doing ok – it’s not 100% compliant but given the shit I have going on, it’s pretty good, actually. I was eating a bit at work, but I’m not yet concerned about my weight as I started taking creatine since last month… so my cope is weight not decreasing is due to water saturation from creatine. Will it hold? We’ll find out…
For weight lifting, apparently muscle memory is a thing so I should probably try to increase the weights a little more rapidly than my original schedule. Probably do some sort of 5×5 once a week for each lift and add 5 lbs to each the week after until it’s not sustainable, then switch back to the 5/3/1 program I’ve been using. There’s no rules here… so let’s see what happens.
Since I’ve been able to full clear my anki deck, I now have room to be adding cards to my deck. Ideally I’d be adding words I come across in エロゲ/同人誌, but going back to those and looking after the fact is a little annoying… so for now we are just sticking with words I miss from Kotoba Bot’s N1 reading quiz:
Maybe we can pass DJT’s n1 quiz in a few months… side goal to JLPT N2 at year end, I suppose.
Mahjong has been really sad lately… I thought about taking a short break cause it was making me upset, but I think token one game a day should be fine. Just don’t play a game trying to get a 1st to set the tone for the day… Be happy on your own (:
I don’t really know if I can make every post exciting… but in the end, life itself is quite ordinary… so let’s let this be a reflection of that too. It’s like when you’re reading those high drama stories where everything is going to shit and the characters facing peril are like “Damn… I just want to live a normal life man…” yet here we are living normal lives pining for excitement to escape the drudgery of our normal life! What if we just learn to take joy in living a normal life?
I guess I have to turn on my phone for this…. damn…
This week’s theme is 三輪フタバ’s capuccino!
