[OMG! I just realized that for the last two days, I've been saying it's March on my cover photos. ๐ Ummm, I know what month it is (not really ๐).]
Got to bed around nine last night, so not too bad, but when I woke up around one or so to move out to the couch, my brain started up and I couldn't get back to sleep. Was awake until about three-ish but then slept until seven and, amazingly, still managed nine hours for the night. ๐
However, getting up at seven meant that I had less than an hour to do my post, so despite the fact that I really wanted to just say "fuck it for once" today, I could see myself disappointed a week from now when my balance didn't grow, and I spent literally every second from when I woke up until when I had to get ready for work getting it done as best I could...managed a thousand words for whatever that's worth (well, I guess about five bucks or so).
Once again, in my rush to get done, I forgot to get my crypto market photo. I suppose they did something, but I couldn't tell ya' at the moment.
Speaking of cryptos, though, I'd gotten an email the other day from an exchange saying they were closing their US operations. Not sure why I just read the "Bi" and thought it was Binance. ๐คทโโ๏ธ I thought about it and was like "I don't have any crypto on there, so whatever" and ignored it.
I got another email today saying that I did have outstanding balances and that I needed to withdraw them or lose them...then it clicked, fucking Bittrex! ๐ฑ Yeah, I definitely had funds over there.
I withdrew half, deposited quarter into H-E and another quarter I bought and staked to HIVE (feeling utterly ridiculous the entire time - no way I can really justify putting more money in at this point...only excuse was the stake interest).
So panic attack managed, funds are SAFU, but now I've got a real pickle. As a US citizen (barf), Bittrex was pretty much my only way in or out. ๐คฌ๐ญ Sure, I can dox myself to Blocktrades and pay their exorbitant fees and help him become an even bigger whale...might be one of the, if not the, only option I have now.
Although, I might be able to get out via H-E one way or another, but it's definitely more of a pain now, have to go like LTC to Coinbase and out, I guess, but no way in - not that I really need to put any more in anyway, but still. If there aren't on and off ramps, we're truly fucked.
[Actually, running short on time again today...doing my post is really becoming a source of stress, not good, but I suppose I can keep working while the PIMP meeting is going. I hate not being able to pay full attention and participate, though. Got a thousand words done, but not finished...they seem to be ignoring me anyway, so I guess I can get some work done. ๐]
Got my post done and scheduled and then got a shower quick and got everything set up for class. Today we looked at the limit definition of the integral and the first part of the Fundamental Theorem.
It's a bit rough since it's a really hard way to do the integral and we spend the time learning it but don't actually do it that way; even considered skipping it, but the value isn't in the mechanics but the conceptual understanding of what's going on...to have a vision of the operation rather than it just being a black box of rules to follow.
I spent a bunch of time on one of the problems (I made more algebra for myself than I needed to) and I couldn't see what mistake I'd made, so once I finished class I tried the problem again and immediately saw it. Posted the corrected solution in our Discord and then grabbed some lunch.
Headed into town for afternoon class and I played the "can I get there and back on this amount of gas" game (and I won ๐). The drive in was fine and I was there nearly twenty minutes early. Felt kind of weird because nobody showed up until a few minutes before class...thought I'd missed a memo or something, but people showed up.
Today I went back to being entirely on topic and we looked at parametric equations and how to convert back and forth between them and rectangular equations, as well as looking at some nifty graphs like Lissajous figures and epicycloids and hypocycloids. Importantly, we learned how to parameterize circles and lines and ellipses and hyperbolas. ๐ค
The drive home was fine too and I was home, changed, and ready to play video games by four. I did end up dinking around online for a while, but I still had about forty minutes to pop some zombie heads before Wenche was done with work.
I got into one co-op match with a guy who was decent and we were doing really well, but all of a sudden he disconnected. ๐ฅ I did a solo run after that and did quite well, but still not been able to make it the whole way through.
I died shortly after Wenche finished with work and quit out. She made us turkey tacos for dinner and then we plopped in front of the tube for the rest of the evening.
Decided to give She-Hulk a try even though I'd heard it's really bad, and yeah, it's really bad. The animation is terrible on the facial expressions and speech accuracy and it's waaaaaay girl power snowflake crammed down your throat.
Worked on my WombPlay challenges after the reset and then fell asleep.
Splinterlands:
I'm still clueless as to what's going on with my Splinterlands rental income, but at least I'm back up over a dollar (twenty cents over). I did pull a bit more DEC out and had some liquid saved, so put the funds into the PIMP:STELLARUM pool and finally pulled the trigger and bought some more WOO as I'd been thinking about doing for a while.
I payed up my prepay balance the other day, even though it still was okay, so I've got a bit of a buffer now and I just staked the SPS interest again for today...for some reason (dont ask me why), I want to see the GLX drop go back up to 33, but I'm still stuck at 32.08.
dShitty:
Doing alright over on dShitty, I suppose. I'm glad to see that the income is at least stable (if not less than ten percent of what it should be), but I much preferred the last month where it was fun to see it rise...
RS:
Ran a lesson on Rising Star and got my Ego back to zero. I did remember to go in again later in the evening and ran an extra mission ๐ฎ and now another and then another.
HK:
I think Beard did some work catching up with Pizza giveaways, so I might have an excuse to take another picture. At the moment, though, enjoy the same one from like the last two weeks. ๐
GLX:
I'm at a loss as to what my goal is with this...never had an intention to play, so it's not that...don't have any desire to vote on proposals or anything...just MOAR is better? There's a nag in the back of my head that says something about 10k, but whether to be satisfied with that and just sell the rest? For some reason that's not sitting right either. ๐ค So, while I back and forth with myself, I just hit that 100% stake button.
WOO:
In addition to my usual stake and delegation rewards claim and staking up the airdrop and pool divvies, I had a bit of liquid saved (and some play money coming in from Bittrex), so I got another 10k pff the market and staked it up too. ๐ช Hopefully that will bump my dailies a little as well. ๐ค
AR:
Despite feeling slightly butthurt that I'm not in playing Astral Revelations early, seeing that they've got testing going and are working their asses off from what I can tell (and don't think I'm a troll enough to write a post about it ๐คฃ), I've been chucking some more money at their pool and snagged a bit more ASTRA to stake off the market.
