Hi fellow Hiveians,

Today I wanted to talk about how we can be challenged in many different ways, some of it preventing some stuff!

Positional Challenges

In my evenings, on many days I am writing posts for Hive. I try to do this for many reasons, but a big one is that it's pretty good and cathartic for my brain and memory.

Not everybody has this type of thing and that's fine, but for me, it's really a time I look forward to and enjoy on a weekly basis. I don't do it every night, but I do try to do it numerous days per week so that I can stay on task but also be able to produce content on the ideas that are floating around in my head. I've got a lot of ideas and some of them are going to take a lot more time and effort to flesh out, but they are eventually going to manifest in one way or another.

One of the recent challenges I've been having, I don't know if it's a result of getting old or what.. but I have been having issues finding a comfortable position in order to write!

I will admit that the places I have to write, because we live in a condo that's sadly not very big, are a bit limited. My home office setup is in our bedroom so I can't just fire up the badass multi-monitor setup, otherwise my wife would never sleep. I also can't sit in the little man's room.. so I often have to find other places to write haha. This ends up being mostly the bathrooms! They are quiet, and they have a place for me to put my laptop. I even fashioned a little bit of a standing desk in one of them which has been good.

The challenge is now, that I can't stand up for 3 or 4 hours writing posts, so I have to alternate. When I sit, then I can't sit for 2 hours or more because my legs get all fucked up. It's a pretty brutal situation hahaha and I really didn't appreciate it much until the other day.

I was alternating between all of the various options for putting my laptop. On the floor, on the quasi-standing desk, on the closed toilet lid. No matter what I could do, I couldn't get a comfortable position and I finally gave up and just went to bed. It made me think though, that it's funny the contortionist shit that we do in order to do something like write a few posts at night.

I like to do this at night for a few reasons, one of them being the house is QUIET. I am the only one awake, for better or for worse, and I get to catalog my thoughts from the day into something. It's not Shakespeare, but it's my own personal flavor of stuff and I enjoy it. Some feel like dropping by regularly for comments which is always appreciated, and I get to spend some additional time here on Hive. It's a pretty good win all around, I think.

In some ways I am looking forward to moving out of the condo that we live in so that I can get a real environment to write in. Perhaps my own damn office! I could connect my laptop to my uber monitor setup and have a blast.. or I could just sit it on the tabletop for old times sake and write like I am now. At any rate though, I know that I am looking forward to getting a chance to have a better environment where I'm not flopping around like a beached shark trying to get back into the water.

What about you, do you have a strange place that you have to sit to do something? Why do you endure it? Let me know in the comments!
