Sleep 0500 to 1200, 30m nap (7-1/2 hours)

• D&D session 38 at W3's house. CSr, DS, DW, JW (a bit), and me. About 3 hours of gameplay with a lot of interruptions.
• Dinner at Macaroni Grill.
• A bit of MW5 and two DDO quests.

Sleep 0530 to 1130 (6 hours)

• Went with CSr to Mattress Firm and bought a Tempur-Pedic Luxe-Breeze Soft 13" Matress, Queen size ($5900 + tax). It's a very nice bead and since I've never bought a bed (I think mom and dad paid for my first bed, then I got the nice one as a hand-me-down from my sister) I'm fine paying a lot, especially since my back has been in pain now that my body finally gave up on the current 25-year old mattress (which to be fair remained pretty firm for 20 years or so it's just the last few years where it's sagging quite a bit no matter which side I use).
• CSr came with me and also bought a new Tempur-Pedic mattress. Same as mine but Firm (for back sleepers) rather than Soft (for side sleepers).

Sleep 0100 to 0930, 30 minute nap (9 hours)

• Mattress was delivered today. Was about 15 minutes from time of arrival to them leaving. Took a 30m nap and didn't feel back/leg pains when I got up.

Sleep 0430 to 1200, 30 nap (8 hours)

• I guess this time there's only a county accessible sample ballot, which is online. No PDF which is inconvenient.

Wed Sep 30 2026

Sleep 0145 to 0945, 30m nap (8-1/2 hours)

• Yesterday I woke up with a slight bit of soreness. But today I woke up feeling mostly fine so the new bed is doing its job. Reading back looks like my back ache started Wed Aug 26 so I'd been putting up with it for a month.
• Mind you still have some lower back pain later in the day but it used to be in the morning or after a nap I could barely walk.
• Trader Joe's. This time instead of tortilla chips I bought taco-sized corn tortillas which should be healthier.
• C3 dinner. Charm Thai Eatery.

Sleep 0545 to 1145, 30m nap (6-1/2 hours)

• Oracle proxy vote. You know I just realized that since Ellison has 46% of the stock he can pretty much nix any stockholder proposal he doesn't like. So I should always vote for these proposals and do my part to make the decision process fairer (I don't mean the voting process, which is quite fair, but that fairness means decisions are basically decided by one person).

Sleep 0500 to 1100 (6 hours)

• Courtyard flood testing was today which was a surprise to me. But thinking back there were two dates they had available and today was one of them. But no notices put out or anything. Oh well, everything last minute with this project. The engineer called me but I missed the call. I think on silent mode my phone doesn't vibrate -- I must have disabled a setting.
