Dear @Dayleeo // 2nd June 2k18 // start of the month energy building today.

kinda weird although i could feel the momentum of the start of the month yesterday and it felt like everything just got more manic what with the massive @steemhunt delegation and changes to the guidelines and all the moderation duties it was kinda just, well manic.

today however is a different day, i’m really relaxed because it’s a completely different weekend, it’s 10am and bella would have been picked up by now if it was any other weekend, i’ve got this weekend to get a bunch sorted and then another five days straight to really crank out some work — of course i’ve gotta swap hours around to deal with the weather but i’m feeling focused up today.

paid the rent for the month, got a coffee and breakfast and i’m writing to you from the back room of the cafe, it’s just me and i’ve got the power hookup, the internet is off again thou, think that’s just broken again, i’d love to fix that up for them and sort out that portal/wifi so they can get a bit of a Facebook kick back when people access it, also needs some rate limiting because i know that’s why it keeps getting kicked off — needs per client connected rate limiting.

so yeah, wowwowow. feeling the momentum energy this morning for sure, i think maybe because friday was different too, lots of little micro time fractures over the last two weeks — it’s crazy how we expect things to flow and then feel surprised and a little lost when things don’t run like they did before.

i’m glad i got some creative time in yesterday to deploy today on @steemhunt, got a @dlive video i want to record and of course the usual curated top 10, i’m very aware that i’ve got this ‘available’ time as such this week — just hope it allows me to get some solid work done.

bottom line is i’ve got another four/five week time runway and even if my focus goes to shit i’ve got power, water and a roof over my head — everything else is gravy if i can keep on top of foods and stuff, feel a little less stressed about the car right now which is good because that was forcing a time scale for resolution and i know i can chip away.

talking of chip away, wowoow, 2nd of june and we are effectively a quarter of the way already to our $400 total on this initial round of @upgrades funding for the new jersey studio setup (heheh, sounds grand right?) — can’t wait to activate your side of the pond with those lights, green screen and audio input, that customising OBS life — i always love to see what you come up.

[10:16] — everything went rapidly this morning, quick coffee, paid rent, heading to cafe, fast small breakfast and latte turnaround and heading back to the van in the next ten minutes — we really are time travellers!

i’ve got a stack of pots i need to do, i’m thinking it might be smart to get back, grab them and get them sorted before i get into the day because i know at some point in the day i’m gonna turn around and be pissed that i’ve not got the big pan for something — hmm, i do have my granola in the fridge thou so that COULD sustain me all day.

feels like a big media day regardless, i’ve been wanting to record this @dtube video for a couple of days but the energy flow was not right — i really don’t know how these you tubers and daily content makers do it tbh literally cranking video out back to back, maybe i’m just old but i need time to gather my thoughts on everything.

oh btw, talking of video, @dlive pushed a new 0.7.2 version of their platform this morning, they are now supporting 720p which is AWESOME and using a new encoder which i’m expecting is just much much better than the previous version if they are retiring the old wowza system — i’m not sure what it is about wowza but at one point they had such a good product, i’m not sure what it is that people turn off it eventually, maybe it’s their pricing structure.. . waffling, sorry.

finished breakfast, coffee left, few beans — you were crushing it this week biza, mad props. even thou the ‘fox’ might have been a bit weak sauce on the hours this week you kinda came in and crushed the rest, i really can’t wait until we can be making video stuff together with both having a drop in ‘set’ each to work from — i’m so determined to get all the accounts flowing, pay down debts, get that new machine upgrade, i’m dying to play multiplayer together again.

so we keep pushing right? that’s what we do best, we keep getting up at the computer, lemon water in hand and we take that big yawn, wash our faces with wipes and dig back into the virtual world that’s awaiting us — if i smash this week then next week my residuals come through and i can refill the larder coffers of food for the rest of the month :) yay! :)

a movement energies weird few weeks for sure but i feel it’s on the back foot now, what with moving from different locations with different energy it certainly throws me and just makes me panic that van tyres are ok, that the floor ain’t gonna fall through, that the car battery is shot etc.

you know i just had this overwhelming barrage of situations i felt were pulling me back and forth between analog and digital and it was like, a lot — as i get older i realise that i’m building in ‘grey matter’ defences to kinda avoid those sudden feeling of ramps between them both.

but we good now, for now. all things that i’m able to sort are sorted and now it’s a restart towards the rest of the month, time to acquire, put aside, feed a bit in here, develop a bit over there, pad out the residuals — get them damn small courses up and improve the skillshare profile and layout, heck even do some r&d on those mockup ideas, felt good to do that little ‘rating’ panel yesterday, something small but it was MINE you know?

that’s what’s great about creativity and technology, we adults get to play, we get to shape the edges of things in cyberspace with these incredibly well formed tools that allow us to put our own unique spin on things, it’s a wonder to behold really if you think about it (ok, cheers latte, i get you)

wow, i wrote a lot today, time to head back to the van and get internet, no internet like i said here today — will sync when i get in the van, add gifs and it will be winging it’s way to you, i’m not sure what you have work wise today but i’m hoping for a discord audio back to back MINIMUM today with you, i love you and i like you.

I’ll speak to you shortly.
Lots of love and hugs and stuff,

Da Mouser,
