Topic	Andy Now Does Yet More Andy Nouns [ANDYMAN] Vol. 1: Self-deprecating, contained!
KujikawaRising 08/03/18 10:21:02 AM #49:	That day off was so, so needed. I think it was more psychological than anything. I was legit burned out and going @__@ to the point I thought I was ill, thus I actually WAS ill. It was both for my mental and physical health. Had I gone in to work, it ran the risk of causing me to snap at expense of me actually getting things done. It's shameful how some terrible employers think more time at work = more done, not realizing that employees that are physically, mentally, and psychologically exhausted are unproductive, unhappy, and insane. I'm just glad I really like my boss - she understands this stuff! `Gaming:` All I did in Xillia yesterday was get to the bottom of the Abyss, kill the Devil's Beast that went down there to die and attacked us so we would put it out of its misery (I don't feel bad if that's what it wanted, given how it lost all sense of purpose having been turned into a war machine against its will), and made my way out of the mine on foot. What, fast travel? I wanted to gain more EXP and Gald. After maxing out my armor and weapons and replenishing my items and foodstuffs, I currently have 450,000 Gald. Leia's reaction when we got half a million (before I spent some) was cute. I might get to hear it again when I hit that mark a second time. ^_^ I am so addicted to Xillia that I didn't play anything else. `Weight loss:` Day off yesterday, so I only got 4200 steps (one half-hour walk got me that high), putting my weekly total to 47,300. That's still not terrible. Calorie count was probably around 1,300 - which is over my ideal sub-1,000 for a Thursday, but I don't care since I had the day off and that was far more self-control than I'd ever shown on an entire day I spent at home. One step at a time. As long as I manually shrink my stomach by eating fewer calories, I'll lose weight in the long haul. I just have to avoid addictive things like Topperstix. At least the FMTB (Fresh Mozzarella, Tomato, Basil - the August slice of the month at another pizza place I go to that uses all locally-sourced toppings [the cheese is from my usual cheesemaker at the farmer's market, too]) is somewhat healthy compared to other pizza options... but yeah >_> `Song of the Day:` Let's mourn another one gone too soon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zo30aeYhWd4" data-time=" RIP Chris :( But yeah, that's the song to the best Bond opening sequence (and though not the best Bond song, it's top 5 for sure) `Other things:` I plan to cook that noodle dish tomorrow. Will ask the parents if they want some. They're going to be exhausted since they need to go get Grandma a new bed... she's struggling getting in and out of bed now. The woman's 95 y/o and tough as nails but... yeah, she's not doing well. I worry about her a lot, but I have known since Grandpa passed that she wasn't going to be around forever... To avoid ending on a depressing note, since almost everything in this post was dismal (unintentionally so), I'll give a second song of the day and let Weird Al cheer us all up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nUKgeAKTaXM" data-time=" --- https://imgur.com/t3naEGu I'm BlueCrystalTear, probably at work. <cite>KujikawaRising posted [p:906196963] in Andy Now D...
