Diary - Jul 25 to Jul 31 2026

Sat Jul 25 2026

Sleep 0400 to 1100 (7 hours)

  • DDO We started Magic of Myth Drannor and did Safehold on R5.

Sun Jul 26 2026

Sleep 0430 to 1130 (7 hours)

  • Annoying that YouTube will log you out mid-watching a video. Especially for a live stream and you suddenly can't type in chat. Typical Alphabet lack of UI refinements. (I've probably mentioned this before.)

Mon Jul 27 2026

Sleep 0300 to 0945 (6-3/4 hours)

  • Didn't realize Leagues Cup starts next week. That's going to be a lot of games and I'm going to fall way behind on my MLS viewing.

Tue Jul 28 2026

Sleep 0100 to 0945 (8-3/4 hours)

  • GURPS Basic Set, Fourth Edition Revised now up on pre-order. The marketing email has "Backward compatibility with all GURPS Fourth Edition materials, no rule changes, and no page-reference changes!" And I just realized that when 4E was released they made the unusual decision to do continuous page numbering from Characters to Campaigns so the GM's book starts at page two-hundred-something. So now they can put them both in one book without page numbering weirdness (they could have had normal and a separate page numbering Character-xxx and Campaigns-xxx and still keep it in one book).

Wed Jul 29 2026

Sleep 0500 to 1200 (7 hours)

  • I finally got around to collecting a bit of poo and mailing it for the Fecal Immunochemical Test. Beats getting a colonoscopy. I see, all they're doing is testing for blood in your poop. Seems like a cheap test. Well, cheap for a medical test. All the safety stuff probably adds quite a bit to the cost.

Thu Jul 30 2026

Sleep 0145 to 0945.

  • Stopped by Mi Rancho and got some Chicharrones, a large can of refried beans, and pan dulce.

Fri Jul 31 2026

Sleep 0345 to 0915, 1800 to 1845 (6-1/4 hours)

  • Check retirement investments. Down $60k this month though YTD still up $130k (including selling $50k though I guess that's more like selling $25k since ORCL lost almost 50% since I sold).
