Dream
I have a vague feeling of the dream I had last night. But nothing substantive comes from it. During meditation, it did not return as it sometimes does. I believe it has seeped into the void.
Entertainment
The only YouTube I watched yesterday was with the wife. I even discussed why we were watching it, and the value is worth the time.
My alone entertainment thus was what I wanted it to be: I watched two episodes of K-On!, and read a technical article: Fightin' Words: Netcode Explained, which discusses fighting game netcode and why rollback is the current latest and greatest.
This also marks the first successful day of reading an article from my reading list during the evening. It was a morning routine thing, but I want to make the morning more flexible and efficient so I can jump into work without feeling the need to skip my morning routine nor necessarily regularly skipping things I want to do daily. Some of my morning things work just fine in the evening.
Today, I will also try stretching at the end of the day again (trying stretching in the evenings on days I don't run).
This is also, I think, a good exercise in my current theme: "Practice intentionality"
Meditation (Day 22)
Today, I caved in and looked at the timer on my watch before meditation session ended. Part of it is a worry that the watch crashed and rebooted, meaning there was no timer to tell me to stop. But also it was just that around 10 minutes in my brain really wants to check the timer (I do two timers of 15 minutes).
I think a backup timer to alleviate the Doubt of my watch should help. It has in the past, I shall reincorporate the strategy.
There's plenty for me to say that I've saved in my notion, but I think I'd like to make more time for work today.
