Well, great - I'm already sick of having a "normal sleep schedule", since my normal activites are not built around it. I feel too tired all day long. TO be fair, I started noticing it happen more frequently. I am once again permitting myself to go into overstimulation. Thankfully, I'm sucessfully abstaining from killing myself in the gym - I got better discipline for that, or maybe I got more things distracting me. All these things, all this smudginess of feeling, all that can still be beneficial - becauce it inspires me, physically, mentally and spiritually. Great stuff. I once again have a lot of things to say, as evident formt eh fact that I'm writing on a non-training day. Nice day today, super low energy though. Played Minecraft masochistically - trying to beat the Wither in superflat world, and I'm also recording this. I plan to make a youtube video. And then, I think, I'll finally do the long awaited "iron golem lore" that I've been thinking about for so long.

Time for a nice Bible quote. This time - a whole chapter. Taken directly from Wikisource.
Matthew, Chapter 6
1 Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven.
2 Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
3 But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:
4 That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly.
5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
8 Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.
9 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
10 Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
11 Give us this day our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
16 Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance: for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
17 But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face;
18 That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly.
19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:
20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
22 The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.
23 But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!
24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
25 Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?
26 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
27 Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
28 And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
29 And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
30 Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?
31 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
32 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

That's a massive post right here. And I yet have to work out and write down my thoughts.
Today we have overhead press. And I also hope to do some vocals work - maybe even finish the whole song. Probably not. And I must do some instrumentation for the next song - let's call it "gbj: for short - "greasy bluesy jam" - cause I want the sound to be fat and dirty and make you wanna dance in grim excitement.

Overhead press
Warmup
105 - 2 sets of 4
Pushpress
120 - 2 sets of 4 - very ugly. I think I need to devote the whole session to PPs.
70 - 2 sets of 4
Squat
70*10
100*10
Floor supported pullups
3 sets of 15
In between sets I drummed and tried to teach my little brother how to play guitar, drums and chess. Then I cooked some food for him and recorded some semi-complex jazz-like beats. I really confused myself when I thought that I was playing in 5/4 at 130 bpm - but I was actually playing in 4/4 at 100 bpm. I really like the couple of beats I ended up with. Then I spent some recording a part of the "greasy_jam" on top of those drums. This time I managed to recreate a nice bass time, much better than last time. I've been way too low on energy since last week, and last week as well, to be honest. Not enough time spent playing music, too much time spent thinking up doom metal lyrics, ha ha.
