Sunday: after my update yesterday, I did some work on my new game template for Inform 7 projects, combining my Storylets sample code with my "One Weird Trick to Annoy Decompilers" text obfuscation technique. Julie watched a couple of movies, the second of which turned out to be Boogie Nights. I happened to be in the room as Dirk Diggler's career was taking off, but I didn't stick around to see how things played out for those up-and-comers. Despite my best efforts, I did end up staying up super late again. John and I have to split the blame, since he kept leading me into other rooms, and then I would have trouble finding my way back to whatever I'd been doing before his arrival. Ended up falling asleep around 4 AM.

Today's the second day of my work week, but the exhaustion from yesterday returned along wtih something like a headache. Saturdays and Sundays are usually my most productive workdays, but I wasn't able to finish as many trade sanctions emails as I would have liked. Napped on my breaks again, and I was able to spend 30 minutes of my lunch break eating my salad while I watched some of a Hi-Fi Rush playthrough on youtube. After work, I walked to the gym, and it was beautiful outside: the air was cool and pleasant and smelled of grilled meat. Walking past Pizzata added their spices to the mix; it's not my favorite pizza, but they've suffused the sidewalks around their building with the sensation of approaching the open door of a Pizza Hut in 1987.

While the gym was almost empty, somebody was using my preferred machine, so I rode a networkless recumbent bike and caught up on Select Button threads on my phone. I chose the Hill Climber routine rather than Mountain Peaks, but I bumped the intensity up a couple levels, and I resisted the urge to reduce it at any point. I came home and cleaned up before dinner. Julie had made potroast and mashed potatoes with a sort of fruite and vegetable compote. We continued watching Bob's Burgers, including the Weekend at Mort's, Gene's time as a mascot racer at the Wonder Wharf baseball stadium (one of our favorites), and the season finale in the condemned taffy factory. I treated the cats, came in here to post this update, and now I'm going to try to go to bed by 1:30 AM.

2023

Friday: I didn't go to bed when I was supposed to, I didn't get up until it was already almost noon, and I didn't get any work on my project done. I did vacuum, though, and I did a load of laundry. We were going to go to Chris's house for some bid euchre, but he thought he might be in the early stages of an illness such that his residence could be a contagion vector, so we went to the PHS Pop-Up Garden at South Street instead to play in the open air. (I should have gotten something more filling than a Caesar salad, as I've spent the rest of the evening snacking on grapes and peanuts. The place was pricy, considering our pitcher of sangria topped out at four small glasses.) Fun games, though.

Games:
World of Warcraft - Through the Ashes and Flames

2019

This was the last time I played Slay the Spire for a few years. (I was a little disappointed that we only had three character classes, even though I wasn't approaching mastery on any of them yet. I was impressed by somebody's modded class, and I even started researching how I could go about adding my own modded class, but that effort never went anywhere.)
