Le Journal de Palpatine™ (2023)

I left a game on the phone. Brain-teaser. Have to move screws holding up metal pieces, and do it in a way that lets you clear all the metal pieces off the board. but sometimes you do it in a wrong way and shit gets stuck. Figured that’d be a good one to keep my brain sharp.

I feel Emperor making me evaluate shit in terms of ROI and taking “right” actions.

That game is gone now.

I’m reading “The Dice Man”.
Interesting book so far

Dropped Heartsong. Not because of recon.
Because I realized I was running HS because it felt like the “right” thing to do.

Running HS to justify being “able” to run IrresistiBILL. To assuage any possible “guilt” in becoming a sexual powerhouse.

Not that I necessarily feel “guilty”. Just can’t think of a better word.

So HS is out (for now) and Wanted Black is in.

“The Dice Man” is interesting. It gets one thinking about social structures we take for granted.

Maybe it’s the timing of reading a book of this nature while changing my stack to running Emperor, IrresistiBILL and Wanted Black.

Definitely finding my thought patterns shifting.

When I read the title I thought it was about Andrew " Dice" Clay

My voice is deeper on the phone at work today. And I’m able to modulate it effortlessly

I’ve been letting the Dice dictate each day whether it’s a sub day or rest day. And also dictate what I listen to from my overall stack and for how long.

Recon doesn’t seem to be a thing anymore.

Interesting…

I guess my pattern isn’t oneitis. More like polyitis. lol

When I’m talking to any given woman I’m interested in, it’s like she’s the only woman in the world during those moments.

I guess I’m seductive. Or am I just a dawg?

One thing that sucks money-wise is when I mention to someone that I’m gonna get X shoes once I’ve stashed enough side money to do so.

But they go and buy shoes as a “gift” for me. Shoes I’d never have bought for myself.

Then say “now you have shoes and can use your money on more important things.”

Because why waste money on the shoes I want when I’ve already got shoes now?

This came up in convo with a friend today. I’m treating it as Sultan module being beefed up with NWE. I got to talking about how I’m tired of being blown around by the winds of circumstance:

My shift today was to be 8am-12pm. My car wouldn’t start though. The battery had died.
I told my supervisor I’d be late coming in, assuming I got done in time.
I got the battery replaced by 11:45 or so

Texted my supervisor I can come in if they need me to.

She said I could help with email tickets, since they’re still backlogged from yesterday.

No calls lol

so I put on my YT playlist I used to listen to when doing email support at Apple before, and got into flow same as at Apple

we got tickets from 45 emails when I showed up down to 5 when I left to get wife from work (just about 3.5 hours of me being there)
And gotta remember the others were on phones too, and phone calls take priority over email tickets. So I did end up knocking out a ton of emails.

the girls at work (I’m the only guy there) were happy that I came in to help on those. as otherwise it isn’t likely they’d have been cleared out by closing time at 5pm.

They were gushing like from LBFH. now that I think of it. Guess that bad boy really works.

Supervisor asked during my 1:1 today if I’m still open to doing full-time schedule. I had asked about it during my interview.

I basically said “Hell yeah” in more professional language.

I suspect the older lady who started with me might be leaving at some point.

Taking her forever to grasp some of the most basic job functions.

Not sure.

This turn of events is coming off the back of running only romance subs and the new LBFH.

Haven’t run Genesis: Mogul or any wealth subs in a while now. So not sure what’s up.

I ran a full loop of NectarRev before bed last night too.

EDIT: I realize it feels good that I’m somewhat valued at this job. First job I can think of where that’s the case.

I’m finding that my best/fastest/most profound results SEEM to come from running full loops instead of shorter loops.

Shorter loops still do their thang but full loops (for me) seem best.

Makes me sad. :joy:

But it is what it be.

While it makes me sad, I’m also more excited than ever before. Because moving forward my experiments will take on a whole new level of awesome.

Tonight I’ll probably run a full loop of IrresistiBILL before bed.

Last night I ran a full loop of RevNectar before bed. Had a long convoluted set of dreams about time travel.

And today my sup asked me about if I’d be open to a full-time schedule and occasionally doing an opening shift starting at 6am.

Not quite sure the connection between RevNectar and the sup offering me full time schedule. I’ll take it though.

I think that’s the key right there. Feeling valued as a person is fundamental to so many other things.
