Ear to the grindstone

Today is...Monday? Really? Three days I've missed, blog-wise. Weekend, too, which is a recurring pattern, it seems. I wasn't even going to post tonight, honestly, but I stopped to shut down the office, and of course I sat down to take care of a few things and, well...here I am. Didn't quite hit all the dailies today, but still...not bad, and really it's just the inbox and job hunt I'm leaving undone, so...that's still good enough to make a blog post. What I did do today was a bunch of pod mining: did a complete GC and almost (but not quite) put a button on CL. Really full day, honestly. Got my chores in...even did a load of laundry this morning. It's amazing how much shit I can get done when I don't play video games all day. :P
So, yeah...I last left off on Thursday, which I had dedicated to doing admin catchup, which went quite well. Friday, though...I think I basically just fizzled out on. I started off all right early on; got the usual Friday morning stuff handled, did some admin...I made a point to catch the MM lunch, though, and I think...I basically just didn't do anything much after that.
Saturday was a big pod mining day, and I did most of the work on the CL that I (nearly) wrapped today. The plan on Saturday was to finish CL on Sunday and maybe hit GC...I think that came in on Saturday, if I recall. But, yeah...I just totally sank into a hole on Sunday and did nothing. So that was largely my motivation for hitting the mines so hard today. Well...yes, the fact that I didn't do anything on Sunday, but also deadlines. :P GC went pretty much as expected. CL...went fine? Spent some good time on sound design, but I have to do the recap yet to finish it off, but also I'm waiting on some final audio, so...I don't feel too bad about slipping the deadline a bit. As always, gonna try and get ahead of things again this week with ECB.
So, yeah...this week I'm looking at ECB, NOF, and I can only assume some MM, as well, but I think I really gotta speed that up. Also the usual FMG stuff tomorrow (after tonight's stream), but that usually doesn't take so long. Not sure what else. I mean...not that that's not enough. I know I say this all the time, but this week is another chance to try and keep focus and actually keep up with the work load plus take care of admin stuff and run the job hunt. Lots going on...just gotta keep on my feet, ya know? So it goes.
In any case...I stayed up a little extra late last night, so I think bed should be pretty welcome tonight. We'll see how I feel tomorrow, but if pattern holds, and since I didn't seem to feel much sleep dep effects today, tomorrow I might be dragging a lot. We'll see if I can keep it light. If the work load goes well, I was tossing around the possibility of a quick shopping trip, so...we'll see what happens in that department. Failing that, there's plenty to do around here. Regardless, bed awaits. Peace.
Day 23.
