I have to give a presentation soon and I am not looking forward to it.
Even worse, today I found the bread and peaches I was gonna eat this week are moldy!! T_T The bread is over a week old so maybe it makes sense, but the peaches I just bought the other day!! It's annoying. But hopefully things will turn around from here.
Things are much calmer than last week workwise and I have a couple of days off this week thankfully. Saw the first of a few Edinburgh previews last night which was great (was in a damp side room of a pub so felt like being at the fringe already). Seeing an outdoor Shakespeare play on Friday so hoping it stops raining before then!
Dealing with my executive dysfunction. I managed to study for 90 minutes this Monday morning, and I tried to continue that same afternoon, but I couldn't do more than 30 minutes.
I need to put my head in order to avoid those situations, but I can't.
In short:
Very hot weather & no AC => window open at night => getting woken up at 5:30 in the morning by early morning trains => tired af
Holidays! Almost the end of them and I am so tired I must say. In a good way I think but I will need to recover at home for a few days.
I am addicted to internet and mmos and I managed to curb it a solid bit due to holidays but it never lasts honestly.
Here I was doing 10k steps a day bare feet on the beach walks, generally being more healthy than at home and I fear I will slump again into my old habits of sitting and mmoing all day. Already bought ffxiv complete edition on sale.
Frankly lemmy is also part of my eternal crusade against digital addictions
Been a weird one, ngl
As a wow player, I started my 3 day weekend and accomplished getting a new raid mount, and one I’ve wanted since I started playing! I’ve only been playing since around September, but it’s a 1% chance of dropping so I’m grateful!
I had a lovely weekend full of sleep. My bedroom is on the top floor, with a tall ceiling and no attic above me. It was a loudly rainy morning yesterday, so I just slept in and it was so relaxing and chill.
Today I got stuff done at work. I feel accomplished and on-track with my work goals. Tonight I'll probably play a violent shoot-'em-up game (Payday 2) with friends online.
I need to get my tiny elderly dog to eat his breakfast as soon as I get home. My WFH partner reports Tiny Dog is a Tiny Butthead.
Update: 
Good. I came out as bi to my cousin yesterday. I've actually been having an ok week. I hope things stay ok
Looking forward to my two weeks holidays starting next week.
Really dragging this week out knowing I'll be off though.
Have so many games and shows to get stuck into. TOTK has been neglected for too long.
currently reading a number of books after completely crashing out of doing that for the entire month of June. i think i can get about 3 in before the end of the month
What books have you been reading / into?
Been really annoyed by all of the beehaw brown outs, but I’m trying to be understanding about the difficulties of a growing platform.
Also been getting back into VR gaming which has been fun and made me pretty sore
Wrapping up a trip to the Philippines! Having mixed feelings about going back to real life soon. Also, this is my first post here. I always feel awkward introducing myself in those introduction type threads, but hello everyone!
Going well. Trying to stay cool. Excited about some work to be done to my house. Got a whole house fan going in, and a SolaTube (like a skylight, but small).
Same old. I have an exam this Friday, just wanna get it over with so I can concentrate more on reading and writing.
I pinched a nerve in my back late last week and today was the first morning I woke up without any immediate pain, so that's progress at least
oh yay! maybe you dehcnip it last night :o
decent so far, spent all of yesterday with family. hope everyone else is having a good week too. good luck on the book goal @alyaza@beehaw.org & make sure to get some more rest!
Pretty good. Did some great grilling last night while watching baseball (Dodgers lost, dammit), and today we finally get a break from some very hot weather.
It's been a weird couple weeks for me. I was working six days a week for the last three months and now they've been giving me these random middle of the week days off so my sleep schedule is just wrecked lol back to work for today and tomorrow now but it's been pretty slow here so I mainly just browse beehaw and mastodon all day. Luckily I get hourly + commission so if I see one or two customers today I'll be happy. It's been a pretty chill week I guess. 😌 Sorta depressing that my life is all about work lately though
