Diary - Aug 22 to Aug 28 2026

Sat Aug 22 2026

Sleep 0215 to 0745, 1030 to 1315 (8-1/2 hours)

  • Woke up early for termite inspectors who came by about 1000. Then I slept some more.

Sun Aug 23 2026

Sleep 0115 to 1015 (9 hours)

  • D&D Session 37 at C3's house. Sophia is in Taiwan. CSr/CJr paid attention for a while then CSr went to take a nap and CJr played with Jonathan. DW and CW did most of today's gaming.

Mon Aug 24 2026

Sleep 0330 to 0815, 1215 to 1445 (7-1/4 hours)

  • Foot feels like maybe gout is coming so taking Advil since this morning.

Tue Aug 25 2026

Sleep 0045 to 0700 , 1115 to 1230 (7-1/2 hours)

  • Termite inspections. Pacific Coast had to cancel but a mix-up and they didn't notify Manor yesterday so I didn't know until I called.
  • Received my printed books of Designers & Dragons: Origins. Since Atlas Games was doing fulfillment I was confused about getting more Ars Magica stuff.

Wed Aug 26 2026

Sleep 0145 to 1100 (9-1/4 hours)

  • Last night and today I have pain lower back on the right when I put weight on my right leg. A couple Advil helped by 1400 so I could go grocery shopping while I'm still mobile. Could be gout or could be because slowly jogging last week on a hard wood floor so kind of jarring to my legs.
  • Safeway for white rice (I'm totally out), Advil (almost out, 100-ct same cost as Safeway brand), two Zevo Flying Insect Traps (these use a light to attract bugs and a sticky surface to trap them, which means the insert has to be replaced when it's full of dead bugs).

Thu Aug 26 2026

Sleep 0330 to 1115 (7-3/4 hours)

  • HOA Meeting. We're going to hire a project manager so I don't have to deal with two groups that aren't talking to each other.

Fri Aug 28 2026

Sleep 0345 to 1130 (7-3/4 hours)

  • Apple TV and Apple One price increases.
    • Apple One, Individual ($22) $22 instead of:
      • Apple Arcade ($7)
      • Apple Music ($13)
      • Apple TV ($15)
      • iCloud+ 50 GB ($1)
  • Just realized I can create a QNAP storage volume with one hard drive, no RAID. That leaves one slot free for running bad block scans on all my drives. When that's done I can finally put in a second drive and convert the storage volume to RAID 1.
