Dear @Dayleeo // 2nd August 2k18 // the hardest thing is going to bed early BUT I’m HERE! :)

in #dear-dayleeo6 years ago

I don’t know what it is — maybe it’s the soft orange glow of the salt lamp or just that I can see the grey scale of the night sky change through the roof but I do love the night time, it’s a different kind of quiet than the morning (obviously) — all the stealth creatures come out and mull about and in the morning it’s the dawn chorus of the animals communicating on the arrival of the sun to the masses around that will listen.

Going to sleep early in the evening is difficult, I’m looking forward to having some kind of squad or online group of people hanging out together at the same time as us instead of working most of the morning, getting to early afternoon and having to wait for the US side to come online — that’s gonna be nice if I can make that happen to be in your timezone and be on a similar time zone as the streamers I watch — it’s the new television after all right? :)

Missed by 4:30am slot, was not gonna happen, we got a high of 80f kinda day today but it’s later on in the day, although it’s still gonna be 71f at 11am today — ramping up from 2pm onwards until like 8pm which really kinda sucks before it starts to drop again, it’s near on impossible for me to get to sleep then and forget working between those times with video — it’s back to words and prep, modding and just general admin, oh my kingdom for an air con unit, that would change everything.

I’m certainly going to have to invest in a mini desktop freezer and some of those frozen insert things — make myself that insulated box thing, I think with the right materials that can actually work, just not the ghetto one that I had with the dodgy plastic non insulated sides (lol) — it’s kinda weird to see england still in the heatwave, especially into august, that’s kinda unheard of and it’s like being in Spain, supposedly they are gonna be in the 40’s soon!!

We gotta start getting ready for extremes — extreme swings, extreme food switching, extreme power generation, everything that can be influenced on the extreme scale will be and we need to adapt or adopt new ways of working with that extreme sliding scale.

Props for even doing the food prep stuff, keep it up, I might feel like a chore but just think of the days and the portion control and the time you get back not having to be concerned about making food up etc and also the data you get back from eating that way each week — think of those things instead of the time suck that it might have for that initial day.

If for nothing else think about the mental clarity and hopefully pain relief too, don’t forget to keep drinking that apple cider stuff either — I can’t wait to get myself a bottle of that magic stuff too! :)

I think if I had the mini desktop freezer and maybe a mini/micro wave as well that would be a good combo here for me to do the same thing — that’s way off thou, I’d rather get a big cover for the van next so that it can be left for a number of weeks at a time and some kind of security lock on the wheel, it’s not going anywhere anyway for now.

Keen to get into everything today — really focused on the weekend too, I know I have poppet again tomorrow and after that it’s a clear run on the weekend to get this first course up, next one is the different ways to interact with the blockchain and after that I wanna start a little byteball course as I’m learning the new things as well — looks like I won my little bet on the yankees again, hehe, I do like that easy feature on byteball — I really want to work with someone using that for an idea I have for a global video agency.

Anywayz.

Yep, 7am, door cranked, coffee, shit tone of pots to be done that keep looking at me out of the corner of my eye, a whole metric ton of writing and recording to be done but you know what I’m just gonna suck it up and get the fuck on with it all after all what am I here to do otherwise eh?

also, don’t worry about the OBS things, they will come good over time and it won’t be a one take deal anyway, you will be constantly ebbing and flowing with that stuff anyway, keeping is simple is definitely the key and I’m keen for us both to have those stream decks for that — I think that will take all that stuff to another level too because it’s less of clicking around in the app it’s just like hit a key and your off to the races — it’s gonna be perfect actually for creative time to just come up with a scene made up from other assets — all you’ll have to do is design the frame or the animated part etc.

Ok, time to crush these videos, get into the proper course videos, I started yesterday on the graphics when I had some time on the computer between poppet having it — it was interesting to see how she goes about ‘planning’ for her time together with her friends, she was already organising today with her friends like 10am yesterday, I know they are all coming to terms with the whole school change, I’m sure they have tons to debate!

Ok, I’m out, don’t forget to come up with some topics today — ideally don’t want to be talking much later than say 6pm if we do a podcast because I’m gonna be super brain tired but happy to try to get another ‘cast in — I’d like to do them at least twice a week, eventually ramping up to once a day when we are out there on the road maybe — some kind of on the road journal.

Health check wise today, breathing is a little off, I’m a little achy but that’s just because of the damn bed situation (it’s kind of a joke now right) but I’m feeling spritely and able to walk and focus up, just after 7am and I don’t need to go to the shops today but I’ll certainly try for tomorrow before the poppet get’s here so I have something for a proper dinner for us — I’d like to take her to town one of the days she stays a week but I’m not able to at the moment due to resources — transportation and money man, evils! :)

I’ll speak to you shortly.
Lots of love and hugs and stuff,

Da Mouser,
