    Smuggling Under Sail in the Red Sea by Henri De Monfreid at the moment. I didn't know what to expect of it, but it is really fascinating and atmospheric - as well as being as casually racist as you would expect of the 1920s.

    I played Cyberpunk 2077 for a long time.

    Went to the movies to see The Mandalorian and Grogu and had BBQ for lunch.

    Great day.

    My brother and I have been completing old NES games that we never finished and sometimes never played before. I just started up Startropics for the first time.

    Wish it didn't look and feel so jenky, but we'll see how it goes.

    I fukken loved star tropics as a kid. If you don't have an instruction manual you're gonna have to look at a guide for one part though, there was a page you had to get wet to get a clue on how to progress.

    Knocking some items off my never ending list of home projects.

    I made some decent progress this weekend, knocked off a bunch of electric work, but I also added quiet a few things to the list.

    Today was a holiday for me with no obligations! I went to the park for a walk and came home to spend hours working on hobby software dev work. Might make some food soon. Tomorrow I'll wake up and work on professional dev work. Save me...

    It's been raining. Taking the kayak to the local class III creek. Did that yesterday too. Gotta play while there is water.

    Lying around all day, been sick for 2 weeks. Mostly mild respiratory symptoms, but it gets worse at night. I’m wondering if it is mono but without the fatigue. The sore throat is the worst symptom. Both my daughters had it, one had it before me and one after, but have both recovered. I was exhausted today, but I think that was because I barely slept last night

    Hope you feel better soon! Probably worth going to the doctor just to verify its not pneumonia or something, if you haven't already. It can get bad quick (see Kyle Busch's death this past week).

    Tested for mono and strep but both were negative. Based on the rest of the lab results it’s likely a bacterial infection so I’m on a course of antibiotics for the next week and a half. Feeling a lot better though, but there were a few times I thought I was coming out of it so who knows for sure

    Well it's a bank holiday in the UK so most of us did.

    I bought a 100L pool and a parasol, sat in the garden dipping my feet in cool water and drinking rum in the shade.

    One day is usually just enough for me to reclaim my energy. Realistically it’ll be sleeping in, a handful of chores, quality time with The Creature, and maybe catching up on a couple episodes of whatever show I’m into at the time. Maybe taking the time to cook myself a really nice meal too.

    What I’d love to be doing, and frequently feel guilty for not doing, is either getting into the studio to work on some music, or getting out of the house and doing something outdoorsy. For that though, I usually need several days off and the chance to mood myself into doing it.

    Pentecost Monday is a holiday where I live. I binged almost an entire season of Game Changer and created my first Paralives household.

    Ideally I'd draw all day. Realistically I'm too tired to do anything but scroll.

    It's memorial day in the US today. I spent the day playing stardew valley and RV there yet with my friends since we all have the day off work.

    I have had exactly that. Today is a do-nothing day. Nap, watching videos, playing games, painting nails... nothing substantive whatsoever.

    I had self directed time. moved over to a new (for me) laptop with bazzite on it. would have been much quicker except for a thing I thought was appimage but was chrome.

    I’m just chilling at home all day. I was supposed to work on some new music but was too lazy. I have work again tomorrow so might as well make the most of my not doing anything.

    Gym, then reading a random nonfiction book at the local library, then having blueberry pie at my favorite café, then studying some C at the same café, then maybe asking my newly found friend if they wanna hang out, depending on how our first "date" goes tomorrow.

    I have two broken lawn movers, which I'd fix.

    I know nothing about lawn movers, so I think I could have a good time going through all the phases of hope, anger and eventually success.

    Only 1 day? Then just a few fun things ....... Running, bee keeping, building outdoor kitchen, rebuilding my network and servers, smoking ribs and shotgunshells, swimming, playing records and tapes, quad maintenance, tree felling, wood splitting & stacking, and during lunch (burger from the grill) i'll think of something for the afternoon. But, the day ends with sauna for sure.

    I was lucky enough to have not just free time, but some rare time alone today. I watched Frieren, deep watered the baby veg that are still in pots, and went for a pokemon go walk.

    I don't have a job so I just kind of sit around and do nothing. Doesn't help that I have ✨clinical depression✨.

    Make some progress on my nth playthrough of Fallout 4. Draw an idea I have for my character persona. Clean the area outside. Make some BBQ wings. Finish some edits on my book at the library. Record my lines for my audiobook.

    All I can think about is work.
