June 2, 22: Routine, Wombat, Walk/Errands^2, Burn 🔥, Crashing, TV, and Games

Sleeping was rough tonight. Not sure what’s going on, but my throat really hurts…it’s not like a sore throat, though, more like a swollen gland or a pulled muscle or something. Hurts to swallow and really hurts when I turn my head. 🤕

Got to sleep late as well, so only slept from about ten thirty to four thirty and was a solid two and a half hours short. I dragged wicked hard, but the constant pain definitely made it worse. I totally crashed out for like an hour, hour and a half in the afternoon, but even so I did keep my productivity fairly high.

Did the usual morning routine which is now eaten up a great deal by playing Wombat games and messing with the COIN app. Cryptos were looking a little nicer with BTC holding above $30k and HIVE rising back above $.5. 🤑 Still down like sixty plus percent on my BAL investment and MATIC isn’t doing much better…still losing hard over there and essentially pinned. Gave up on pHBD, their shit is broke.

Speaking of Wombat, I’ve been trying to get into Dungeon Master ‘cus it sounds like people are making a bit of money over there. I wanted to play to get the NFTs, but it’s already been a massive time investment and I haven’t gotten any.

One game I’ve been playing has already had three chances at an NFT, but no, Wombucks, and it looks like it’s going to be one of those things that you basically have to buy the boosters to be able to progress any further. 😡

H3m4n7 said he had one that he could give me that would qualify and get me started the other day and so I asked him about it and he sent me one. 👍 I wanted to give him a fair exchange for it, so I pulled out vouchers from Splinterlands and sold them off. I was a little disappointed, though, when I realized I’d paid him five dollars for it when it’s actually only worth $2.5, but it’s alright…well, kinda’ so far it seems like I’m never going to earn that $5 back…did my first day of the game and have something like 34 millionths of a cent. 🤬 Only just started, though, so I’ll give it a chance.

Otherwise, did the dishes in the sink and put away the clean dishes in the dishwasher, hit the faucets and did all the usual curation and stuff, and then worked on my post for the day.

Of course, today was Thursday, which means the usual trip into town to the smoke store and the puffity-puff store. I got myself another vape for when the current one wears out. Still been smoking a lot, but been trying to vape in the evenings instead, seeing if I can transition.

Got back and grabbed a sandwich for lunch and then thought about going upstairs, but with the pain and tiredness I just couldn’t get motivated to do that. The burn pile was already getting pretty big from the wood we’d pulled out of the upstairs, and I’d been looking for an opportunity to light it but it had been too windy. Today was the day:

And whoosh, like half of the upstairs walls are gone! Once the fire had died down and I’d gotten all the embers and loose pieces in the actual burn pit, I decided to head for a short walk down to the Library. As I passed by this morning it hit me that they have movies there and it had been forever.

I needed to go to the Dollar General for a couple things, so a I made a trip of it, got three movies for us to watch this week, got my stuff at the store, and mined a bunch of COIN as well as wracking up steps. 💪

Was purty darn nice out.

It did kinda’ threaten to rain a bit, but never made good, just a few dark clouds passing by.

I caught sight of a huge snake 🐍 by the sidewalk and got a shot. He wasn’t hanging around to find out what I was interested in, though and took off before I could get a closer pic:

I accidentally paused the FitBit when I took the photo, but luckily the other one was still going. When I got home, though, I was seriously toast. I played a little bit of piano just to mess around and trying to resist the urge to go to bed, but I couldn’t fight it for long.

I put on some Rick and Morty, but was out before the first episode was done. I didn’t feel too bad when I got up, but my neck/throat was hurting as bad as before. Made myself some leftover pasta and meat sauce for dinner and played a ton of Splinterlands.

Wenche had an appointment after work today, so I basically just got ready for bed and put on some more Rick and Morty before passing out again.

Thirty-three SIM is, admittedly, multiples more than the dShitty income I’ve become used to. I guess that’s a move in the right direction.

Not much happening with Rising Star today (or lately at all). I think I might have gone in for a second time today, but not sure…probably not. It is what it is, I suppose.

---

Maybe it’s time to just ditch HashKings, I mean, it’s essentially unplayable for me. Sure, I can sit down at the computer and deal with it, but you see how often I actually get around to that. I wish the mobile site had been busted (and not just crippled) when I first started; it’s doubtful I would have thrown so much money at it.

I played a ton of Splinterlands again this evening for the second day in a row. Bounced in and out of Gold II and didn’t make any progress in that sense.

My Focus for today was Dragon splinter, but unfortunately my worst fears were realized…those rewards chests are still just one thing. So with eleven Dragon wins (more than twice as much playing) I got two chest s (less than half the rewards). 🤬🤬 Maybe the cards will adjust in value as a result? I don’t know, but I’m pissed at the moment.

All that playing for two shitty commons? Looking like my time might be better spent renting the cards out and playing Wombat or something else.

Staked my continuously declining SPS drop, but I needed some liquid funds today, so I did move out the vouchers I had above two hundred. Didn’t sell them all, though, so still have a little dry powder left, but already spent a solid chunk of the liquid I got.

I really need to start doing my Wordles in the morning again. It’s been about forever since I did them. 😢
