UNBRIDLED TRUTH

Where did this weekend go?  It felt like it went by in a flash, and I didn't even have time to do a workout today.  I know I did a lot, but at the same time, I'd be pressed to name much in the way of specific achievements.  Alas, but I suppose it's a fitting cap to a we...

I took a bit of a circuitous route to get in five workouts this week, but in retrospect, I'm glad that I stuck to it.  The natural incentive to stay at home every day lately brings some hidden mental pressures with it, and while I remain fortunate enough to have pretty...

There was a major blindspot in my experience with Diablo-style games, which was Path of Exile.  Seeing as it's free to play (and only about $60 USD to get the most useful specialized stash tabs), I started trying it out.  I still want to play it more before writing a re...

Leaning further into the half-challenges seemed to make a big difference in my mental state.  I'm pretty jazzed about the results I got, too.  A solid week all around.

Only four workouts this week, but the results made me happy enough that I can't get too upset about that.  That pace is still better than one every other day, after all, which seems to be the general cultural cut-off around here between casual exercisers and fitness fre...

On the plus side, I pushed myself into five workouts last week.  On the minus side, I'm going to fall short of that this week.  Something just feels off for me, in terms of general motivation to do much of anything.  My Korean studies have also fallen mostly into autopi...

Maybe I'm lacking some confidence in myself, but it feels like I just can't get motivated to attack my fitness routines like I used to.  Even just getting started can be a drag, let alone pushing myself to do more.  I doubt there's much to be done about it other than wo...

Only four workouts this week, because I spent the weekend looking after a couple of furry geriatrics.  By objective measures, I should be upset at having my life molded to suit cleaning up hairballs and poop, but I'm happy to do so.  It's an animal thing.

So, it was a quiet August around here.  That happens sometimes.  I have gotten close to finishing with that amazon guide post, so I'm hoping that getting that up will help to open the floodgates on the following seven.

In news more relevant to this post, I used this...

My sincere apologies for the delay in posting this.  I've had some tumultuous events in my personal life lately, to put it mildly, a consequence of which was that I didn't do any workouts in the back half of the week.  On top of that, there was a power outage yesterday...
