flatvurmToday is Monday. I didn't blog all weekend, I guess. Saturday I did like a half-day pod editing for NOF, but I don't think I got up to much else. Sunday was for sure a sinkhole. On the upside, I think I've gotten about as much as I can out of the Factorio demo, so I think I can finally leave that alone for a while. Definitely seems like a game I want to pick up and...well, play forever. So that's good. Gonna have to wait until I have, you know...the time (and will) to handle something like that. :) But still. Nice to have something to look forward to, I guess. :)
So...today. Yesterday I made the decision that I wanted to put a lot of effort into putting in, like, a good, solid work day today. Maybe even...work week?! But lemme not get ahead of myself; one step at a time. Today went pretty well. Got up, hit some early chores, some light admin, and then just jumped right into the mines. Finished up the edit on NOF (including some fancy new sound design, if I do say so, myself), so I got that shipped. The big hurdle I jumped was getting back to work after lunch break, which has been a real issue for me in the past couple weeks. That having been accomplished, I also got to circle back for a bit of evening shift since T had some business to attend to around quittin' time. So, yeah...I put in a bunch of hours today.
I did...okay on dailies. Things definitely tend to slip a little more in the admin department when I spend most of the pod mining, but also I was fighting the backlog I let accumulate from over the weekend. So basically I'm leaving inbox and job hunt. Obviously, I'm getting to the blogging, though. :) And also it's, like..."normal" inbox stuff; I did spend some time on more critical admin stuff this morning. Just didn't get the clean sweep to check off the box. :) ANYway. The point being I did a bunch of mining today, and I think I've definitely bought myself some guilt-free admin time, so that's gonna be the focus tomorrow. That's the plan, anyway. Maybe some light editing...I have a short project on deck for CL, plus I can prep the usual CL edit for the week if I have the time. But I won't super push it. Gonna prioritize the admin side and try to get my damn environment in some semblance of order again. So Sisyphean.
Anyway. Blogging while listening to music, and it might be fucking me up a little bit. :) Whatever, though. Gettin' ready for bed soon, and that's gonna be swell. Oh! Also tried starting a thing today where I do something active with my occasional breaks from long-ass times at the desk. T showed me some squats and stretches and junk, so that's pretty nice. Guess I'm feeling pretty good about that, too! Lots to feel good about today, it seems. :)
But, yeah. Good day, and good to put a button on it. More tomorrow...and so ad infinitum. Onward.
Day 16. Crossed the two-week mark!
