Day 990: 10 days to go!
September 18, 2019

I’m not reaching any fitness goals here, folks. And that’s fine. I’m sober! That’s plenty. I think Dry and Mighty will be a good chance to keep on top of fitness as part of sober lifestyle, and my wife is committed to good health too, so.

Day 989: On to the finish!
September 17, 2019

11 days remaining for this, and two more WAFFLES! before that wraps as well. I’m actually gonna keep this short today so I can start preparing “best ofs” for WAFFLES! so we can give the station some room to maneuver.

Day 988: Houseguests, Reading
September 16, 2019

Gotta knock this out quietly — houseguests in the next room — and then get some reading done before class, either at home or heading in early to do it before class starts. Staying on top of this is entirely possible,

Day 987: Carnival Cure, D&D Methodology
September 15, 2019

The fair cured me of my floomp! Specifically the Zipper, which is a ride that I never want to get on but always have a blast once I’m on it. Onion rings, a lame horror ride, and seeing serious shade being thrown in the form of passive-aggressive cookie...

Day 986: Inexplicable Floomp
September 14, 2019

I woke up this morning feeling kinda low, and I’m not sure why. Things are going pretty well, all things considered; I’m happy with the job, fitness, etc; studies are going all right, I’m excited about the Next Thing with Marisa, relationship’s good.

Day 985: Listening To Workout Music While Not Working Out
September 13, 2019

Short, intense row this morning — good stuff! KEY UPDATE: enervate actually kind of means exhausted, which is dumb because it is clearly a combination of energized and aggravated. Words are goofy! And then I just kind of kept playing the playlist when ...

Day 984: Insomnia!
September 12, 2019

HELLO OLD FRIEND. So yes; sleep did not go well last night, and we’re back to sleeping late, up late, scrambling to get out the door and (the twist!) to class. The insomnia issue isn’t really that serious; I think sometimes my brain just looks for some...

Day 983: School Good, Brain Bad
September 11, 2019

“Brain fine” is more accurate, but drama. Everything’s cool. That’s the headline. I am, however, anxious (because anxiety is my jam) that I won’t be able to keep up. I’m fortunate to be working/studying with some brilliant people,

Day 982: Sludgy Run, Brain Workin’
September 10, 2019

Not a stellar run this morning; one of the ones where it feels like my blood has been replaced with some sort of viscous fluid. Mod Podge, maybe. Just staggering around town feeling like there’s Mod Podge flowing through my veins.

Day 981: Reading on the Spin Bike
September 09, 2019

It’s probably not great from either an educational or exercise standpoint, but I’ve just been reading some textbooks while on the spin bike (obviously not doing the up/down back/forth intense spinning thing, just treating it like an exercise bike).
