But that’s her response because you’re fantastic.

Rowvember complete. I have no time to row tomorrow with work as scheduled.
Here’s hoping 360k meters is enough!

It wasn’t.
sigh
Winner had rowed 375k meters. Just found out in an email sent out this morning.
I suppose this is a good thing; an opportunity to process a negative and see how that works for me now. I feel some sadness and disappointment. I had formed a plan and worked it, made adjustments as necessary. I should have aimed higher.
There won’t be a next year. I did tell my wife I won’t compete again- at best, I will use the coming around of Rowvember again as a prompt to get regularly rowing (if I’m not).
Congratz to that young man who won, he earned it.
He had to beat me.

Today’s rowing:
6 days off! My calves ached during this one.
While I would have felt good with the win, ultimately that is the only difference in outcome. I would be troubled with another rower, and a cash prize wasn’t certain.
I suppose in some sense I am the Rowvember Boss encounter for the campus, as these young males who won rowed as much as they did to beat me.
I wanted to keep up with rowing for exercise regardless of winning or losing, so here I am.
In other news, curious about WDB! I am attempting to set a stack plan for 2026, and that is a variable. It would likely be better to plan for stack disruption!

Life has been interesting.
New Wanted is a really neat addition to my experience. I was hesitant to try it, as I recall my wife’s poor reaction to the WB aura. But after reading about Wanted/GLM and auric interactions in the workplace and whatnot, I decided to give it a try and chalk any poor interaction up to experience and move on from Wanted if necessary.
It has not been necessary. The vibe change is different from the WB vibe change, and yeah, duh, it’s a different sub, but there has been no poor reaction from my wife, which is a good thing. I definitely notice the “openness” portion of the auric scripting! At work, more people engage me in greetings or quick conversation. It’s more young ladies yes, but more young men and staff/faculty too.
The openness cuts both ways- I wasn’t feeling wonderful going into work this past Tuesday; I didn’t want to talk to people. I wanted a calm, quiet non verbal autistic morning of just making pizza. Doesn’t matter with this scripting! I had greetings as soon as the first pepperoni pizza hit the shelf. When I saw that it wasn’t one of my ‘regulars’, I knew it was Wanted scripting doing it’s thing.
For numbers people, I would say that the number of customer initiated interactions I have has gone up 25% to 30%. It is all fluff as I have increased attention from my wife. Her stack of Diamond, Primal Romance, and E:E is working well and interacting good with my stack of Wanted/GLM/ Let’s Row (although that one is getting phased out now for DR:Regen)

7 minutes …Imma call it “Epic Ascension Chamber”, my NE version with NREE in Terminus.
Currently finishing up round 2 of SOTA BT9 setting 1.
This week is a transition week for me in terms of daily schedule. Friday switches over to dayshift as the semester ends, and next work week (cleaning week) is shortened due to PTO leading into the winter break. I’m heading into my “regeneration” time of the year, so it’s appropriate that I have DR:Regen on deck for the experience at hand. The week of food discipline starts this weekend as well, as I like to take the opportunity to clean out my system without worrying about work.
Got a potential build chilling, just a NE Earth /w GLM core as the additional module. I kinda want to get Wanted, GLM, Earth and DR: Regen going on at the same time over break, and I plan to start Regen next week. I could stagger some listening, I suppose, and do away with the perceived need for another custom. On the other hand, such a title could well be the foundation of my stack for a good while. I enjoyed my time on GLM and Mountain earlier this year.

Today’s listening:
30 seconds each DR:Regen, EARTH/GLM NE, new Wanted
I’ve been fasting since Wednesday evening. I had originally planned to start a week long fast either yesterday or today, but I came down with some kinda sickness Wednesday evening as well. I woke up at 4 am on Thursday with diarrhea, fever, and body aches. Dry heaves too. I decided to start the fast early and hope that it would help with the sickness.
Interestingly, after listening to that short stack today, I feel guided to break my fast. I got some bone broth around here, and I can follow up with a curry soup later on.
Not quite the fast I wanted. Oh well.

A cold morning here! I dislike cleaning week at work but it must be done. Thankfully I only have 2 more days until 3 weeks of work freedom.
Tattoo artist got back to me, and it’s all set for this coming Friday! Due to placement querying on my end, I may shave my forearm tonight and mess around with a marker a bit to see for myself. I’m planning on Mark 11:24 on my right forearm, with 2 rows of small text running elbow to wrist along the outer edge.
Ever since Emperor DADDY and figuring out I’m autistic, I have multiple instances throughout my day where some memory will arise, and I get to “enjoy” it again with the additional autism filter. It has definitely been le sigh for a while. I have noted that since the introduction of DR:Regen, it is far far easier to extend understanding to my younger self during those occurrences.
I do feel fairly calm at the moment, some 10 minutes after my listening.

Blah. Had a post typed up and lost it as I was submitting. Irritation, but the problem was on my end. I should have checked to see if my wifi was still connected.
DR:Regen has brought up how I feel about my autism as the thing to work on or contemplate. The spa, for me, is a sort of inner Q&A while mentally reclining on a couch, answering my own questions. I felt emotional at one point, and then felt a detachment from that emotion stream within. Separation and observation.
Not what I wanted to work on tonight, but I chose this with my listening decisions this morning. Yeah dude.

Interesting!
Sat down with my wife to eat dinner and watch a show, and I saw we had an hour left of the Eddie Murphy doc on Netflix. Turned out to be exactly what I needed to see after the previous post’s rumination.
Out of the blue, I hear Eddie talking about making guttural noises as a kid, and I realized the guy is an autistic Generator, like me! He talked about using prayer to center himself, repetitious behaviors as a child, how he operates with his creativity and gifts (" I’m not a rowboat. I’m a sailboat. " Gotta say that one hit fucking hard )
When I think he’s got it all figured out, I see signs that he’s still a high functioning, high masking individual.
Still incorporating, but I wanted to record.
