To have what emulator consoles, I have changed into a handheld emulator which is basically a modded PSP (since goodness knows how beneficial the screen size of those were, back in the day).

Me and overcorrection

I'm reluctant to continue watching 'Brother Bear 2' on Disney Plus When my mom appears and she asked me if I watched 'the blue-eyed samurai' (she enjoyed it).. '_' .. I mean, I know that my mom is not exactly a complete stranger to action based animation but dang that one ?. One so recent, no less.

(-):..-_- .. When you're not quite pro-gender diversity parents are watching a video by a half Hispanic half East Asian person detailing the presence of non-heterosexuality in a nation which doesn't quite have fully open attitudes towards the LGBTQ+ community (South Korea), while upstairs one of their offspring and their partner are caring for their half East Asian grandchild

(Salvadoran) folklore like take told by my mom, 'old ladies would say it'..nosy ppl at night might go out to see the source of the noise of an approaching cart. *A haunted cart*.

If the 'driver' gives you a bone it means you'll die soon. To prevent your demise, you have to be ready with a rooster for crowing (the Spanish onomatopoeia for thecrowing 'ki-ki-ri' apparently means 'Christ is born'), a crying infant and something else which my mother can't currently recall.

What Finn Mckenty is for the history of rock of past ~+35 yrs is what Pad Chennington is in regards to electronica particularly of the 'wave genres' and it's overlap with internet culture.

If 'the virtual ocean' podcast never comes back, I'll hold it in fond regard still.


Modal0154 OP March 13th

A very key moment in the track of counseling appointments that I've had over time was when a certain therapist gave me a sheet which explained the cognitive distortions and to use it for a certain sheet exercise of loading down when I was upset, writing down what my thought was, writing down, how long it lasted and the intensity, and writing down what sort of cognitive distortion I could identify it as before writing 'counterbalancing' comments.

It was a critical moment for sure.

Let me try it right now.

Coincidence? Distortion: some higher power is punishing me with compromised water flow within my apartment again because of pornography use overnight (I was keeping track of that and of about 33 minutes browsing, several or less was actually 'active use'--a visceral 'achievement' to recognize)...

an apartment rep told me how the mixing valves for the water tanks we're never optimal and that has been adjusted over time with a currently pressing priority to change or overhaul as needed, this compromise to tenants, water temperatures and pressure was a result as it was at one point last week, as it is currently today.. I know how to adjust as such, even if I don't like the situation yet this happening the night after pornography use gets to me..

If I've reason to not be too hard on myself regarding all this, it's how I stayed over elsewhere for a few days after hearing about a bed bug situation in a nearby apartment ('_' -_- should have asked about that before as well) knowing that when I would return one of my first doing would be the tedious task of having to do laundry not so much for clothes as a big haul of bed stuff like pillowcases and blankets.. it's not a fun thing to have that as the basis for about three hours of needing to be indoors even if after sunset yet after a meaningful weekend plus of being elsewhere and seeing your nephew another family member's residence for the first time.

~12:00 am EST on this end:

more spreadsheet chores/additions

try to understand YMCA membership and possible fee discount

pay for a more limited Yoga studio membership

angst about bike sharing fee overcharge and assuring that I'll get a competent reply back

"   " awaiting competent reply back about one tax form possibility which'll make things sssooo much easier instead of entering with dozens of encumbering sheets which might well irk a certain accountant

"   " about awaiting for certain apartment released sheets detailing rent etc

"             " 'water security' becoming consistent again after 'overhaul' (?) to the water tank to mixing valve relation esoteric to those outside of facilities and non-plumbers

"             " and look up possible driving school course arrangements or at least getting a d--n drivers ed book to study and try to write a test which'll qualify me for the on-road practice part of that course

"            " looking up recreational classes like at a certain gym or a painting class

"            " how for as long as this weird workplace computer network problem continues it'll be a fairly complicated thing to try to make schedule adjustments around all this in the interest of a Saturday driving course

"                             " possible massage therapy whether at a certain university campus, that nice but flipping stupid remote place run by the community college or elsewhere

~"Ought implies can" for Immanuel Kant

Can I do this stuff /is it within a realm of feasibility ?. Sure. Will I ?. No. It's dry, tedious and the sort of stuff which in these confines and at this hour make me vulnerable to the vicious cycle of pornography use, that distorted but oh so 'reliant' source of satisfaction in an achingly tedious world of banal accumulations churned out to garner enough special treatment and attention for the next stage..typing it out like this I can say how most of this isn't urgent even if it will almost never not be a slog to undertake doing.

I did wind up staying awake as long as I would've had I embraced the vice albeit it was not too inflammatory humor laced culture criticism videos and funny stuff; still no real desire to go to work.

Mistake on this one

__

Hot water gracious returned,

got public shared bike charge adjusted,

order drivers ed book and something from Amazon

...while a month of unlimited classes at the yoga studio sounds cool, I 'held back' b/c it'd be too monotonous to go back there after barely ~2 weeks.

Even if I do get an appointment for a discount at the YMCA ( =_= goodness knows how I skeptical of the admin side of customer service there) speaking as someone who'd mainly go there for the classes in contrast to that limited and small gym where I feel uncomfortable around 'over the hill' age ppl giving me funny looks or the jaka-- haughtiness of more youthful cliches, it's not too appealing esp. as how the class I enjoyed before with the use of barbells isn't running for now to my dismay,

hence if not for the gyms under the postsecondary schools, I'd be curious to give this barre place nary far from the yoga studio a try.. '_' =_= still..I get hooked on the classes and 'try to make the most of it' w/a month trial for beginnners..

my drivers ed book arrives in ~2 weeks and will the overlap be too much of an intereference or something like that ?

If memory serves me correct, the community college massage place services cease with the ordinary school semester which might come early May or late April. No time slots available on Friday and it'd currently be convoluted to book time off given workplace IT network issues which are not likely to be resolved before May... -_- this is the basis on which 'my hand is forced' to seek out massage therapy at a more expensive elsewhere. 

Ideas: the Uni sports med place or the yoga studio 

Modal0154 OP March 15th

F--g antipathy for how 'planning ahead' whether debately under an impulse of worry or securing a responsibility can still qualify as 'putting the cart ahead of the horse'..

I've stored up source regarding local driving schools but what is a bit more feasible for now is studying for a G1 test at a 'DriveTest'(?) placed then after search a place for on the road instruction etc.
