Nice day. Sleep schedule = broken, again. I thought I was just gonna take a nap, ha ha.

Real funny stuff is happening at AI Dungeon, and I just can't stop meme-ing devs and players - here's a short insight: https://www.reddit.com/r/AIDungeon/comments/n05f7t/update_to_our_community/

I've been making memes and posting them after a handful of coffee beans. And it's so late. I think I'll still be able to work out nicely today.

Also, this morning I succumbed and bought Fallout 76 - it's been downloading on and off, really nice and consistent speed compared to so many other services. I just want to explore another piece of (fantasy) rural America. And I also love buildcrafting - figuring out the most efficient way to play. And there's a lot of it in there. Plus they released some update, so I watched a video and got hyped.

It's almost 10 PM, and I only ever played guitar a tiny bit. So inconsistent. But music isn't military, you know, it's about inspiration primarily and skill secondarily. Although they're definitely close. Just banging on furniture can make you groove, and that's what you enjoy. Complex stuff is great too, and I'm working towards becoming an absolute virtuoso on all four instruments (jk jk, ha ha).

Made another batch of coffee. Appetite has been sort of inconsistent, but I've been loving how my CNS feels lately. I've been sort of calm and able to contain my impulses (to a degree, at least).

I felt free form guitar lust, thinking this morning how I don't even want to buy a new guitar, but now I'm having coffee and it's sort of coming back, especially after seeing a random EPIPHONE SG Muse Pearl White Metallic advert. If I were to buy a white guitar, it would definitely be quite unique for metal. I kind of want a natural wood finish Les Paul, I feel like it's gonna represent me nicely. I kinda like SGs more though, but, to be fair, I haven't played many different guitars. My fingers are slightly longer than average, but my palm is significantly wider than average - it's a genetic trait, all my siglings have it. Really muscular Adbuctor digit minimi (pinky muscle, that moves it to the side), and I didn't even have to work for it.


Ok, time to work out, soon.

Overhead press

Warmup

70*4 and 90*1

100*4

102*4

105,3 - 2 sets of 4 - easy enough, considering my monday session

A thirty minute break

Squat

70 - 2 sets of 10

And now I have to figure out what I want to do tomorrow. Well, deadlift, obviously, and I'm thinking bench press, too. And heavy lat work, so today I'll do light lats. Ring pulls are so easy to do, they're the best.

Rubber lat pulls

Floor supported ring pullups - feet close to pelvis (center of mass, so it's much easier)

10 or so

Suddenly, a very long break.

40 reps - got my forearms cramping, ha ha, just like in autumn

What else? I think I gotta do some gymnastics. Did some standing leg curls and stretching my shoulders with a 7 kg bar.

 08.10.2023 Great day, feeling great. Woke up earlier than normal, worked more that usual. Feeling extra energy. The night was cold. I kept seeing dreams about (spoiler) The Emperor from BG3, hehehe 😉 Cause I watched one of his cutscenes, even though I ain't been playing yesterday. Yesterday, I was drained. I was drained on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday at night, to a varying degree. Today I feel much more fresh than I have been in a long time. Like, a part of my brain is extra creative. Also, I have been eating rather little - a couple eggs swallowed hastily, a few bananas, a few glasses of milk. Two mokas and one small conventional brew. I'm thinking of doing bench today, and PP + Squat tomorrow. Reasonable? Yes, on the surface it is reasonable. Light-medium-light bench, sets of 5, around 120. 4 sets of 5, maximum velocity, no pauses whatsoever. When you've got the same muscle strength composition as me it sort of feels easier to bench with a pause, and bumpi...

 10.04.2023 Nice day. Not too bad. Sleep - 4/10, nutrition - 6/10. Ran out of coffee, used some of the robusta from the stash. Now having one, fighting the desire to lie down, cause if I lie down I'm just not gonna be able to sleep. Jammed. I figured back in the day I made a lot of these micro-songs that are guitar and bass and midi drums. So, that's one of the things that fuels creativity. You have to save them and listen to them. Then you get something. My old headphones are buzzing a lot. Might be time to buy new ones soon. *** Today's workout is 4 sets of 5 with 77,5 percent. A sixth session in the program which I've been using in defferent variations for everything. So, 77,5% of 150 would be 116. But I'm not perfectly sure if I can do that well in my current shape. So, I might want to get up to 115 starting from a lighter weight. Maybe from 110. Now that I think about it, it's actually quite doable and it's very late. I don't want to hurry. And I do...

 14.09.2022 DL plan - 175 for 5, 200 for 5, 210 - 5*5, 200*1 clean single, maybe even overhand. Nice day. Slept very little. Ate a lot before I went to bed, so I had no appetite when I woke up. Tried to call and message some of my clients. Coordination issues. Sometimes people just can't pick a proper time. Understandable. I often think about how humanity evolved to proritise quick decisions over slow, but 100% sure ones. Better be two times faster and 80% sure than two times slower and 99% sure, amirite? He he. Having my second coffee. Or third? Not sure. Can't remember. Today I'm trying to overstuff the moka pot. The taste is awesome, but the brewing process feels dubious. Played guitar a bit. Practicing licks, playing quickly, playing up the neck. I don't gotta play, I gotta write and record lyrics and vocals. I already made a somewhat decent verse. And I have a rough idea for the chorus. I can't believe how much slower my process has become. What is it? Playing ...
