Hahhaha, I get the frustration for sure and sometimes I write these post to vent myself or just to touch base on where I'm at mentally with what is going on with the platform and that is part of the reason why a lot of people feel like they can't put me on an upvoter. I'm not a "safe" bet for them. Like I might talk about picking up chicks one post, say the market is going lower the next post, say STEEM is awesome the next post, and then talk about space travel the next post. To me it is kind of ridiculous that just paraphrasing coindesk / cointelegraph articles became the "safe" bet. But all in all the STEEM blockchain has been an amazing thing for me and a huge time drain in others. In some respects I look at how much time I have spent here and would say it wasn't worth it because if you calculated the hours spent and saw the hourly rate I could have done better just working a job in a lot of cases. On the other hand I would like to say that I'm on the cusp of something big.
I think for guys like us we know how the system works at this point and it probably makes the most sense for us to try to step up our STEEM power and cluster up even more. If we can't front run the the next wave we could sort of get lost in the mix to be honest with you. I know there are going to be some big points of frustration if the price sags and I have purchased at higher prices then it sags to but I'm looking to get in a better position on here. For the next week or so I'm probably going to have to do low hanging fruit posts and not spend a huge amount of time on here because I have other stuff going.
By the way. Did you get to try to surf on Lake Michigan?
Unfortunately I still havn't made it out there. During the week I need to be in my office to get packages out so my only free time is weekends. One day I headed out to NW Indiana near Gary but waves weren't big enough to do anything. I should have hopped in the water in my wetsuit to at least get a feel for it, I hear from even good swimmers that swimming in a wetsuit, especially a heavy duty 8mm one is a totally different experience and its very wierd so I should have gotten my feet wet but was like hell if I'm going into the water at 10 degrees outside and I'm not even gonna get to surf so wound up heading to 3 floyds brewery and having some beers instead lol.
Were getting kind of into the time of the season when you can still have some rough weather but its not below 15 degrees so I'm gonna have to try to make it out before summers here because in the summer waves are pretty few and far between, however I have seen a couple guys surfing in Brigman on wavy days during the summer.
I'm actually heading down to Mexico tomorrow so will probably do some blog posts about it.
Sweet! How fun in Mexico!
Thanks
