I've Been Tired

4:07 AM (of Tuesday, July 28th, 2026) I need to be more consistent in my journal entries. The reason I haven't been writing them is because the day ends at 12 AM before I can write an entry for that day. I think I need to just start writing at 10 or 11 PM. Anyway, I submitted my Math app last week...

Became Stronger, About AYAT, and Finished Math App

10:54 PM Doing pull-ups and chin-ups felt easy tonight, so I went for new personal bests today. These are my new personal bests at 200 pounds, 9 pull-ups in a row, and 9 chin-ups in a row.

Didn't do anything yet a day still went by

11:59 PM It's pretty interesting that yesterday I worked on a project for over 9 hours. Today I barely remember what I did. I also continued working on the project today of course, but I wasn't as fully immersed nor did I get as much done as yesterday. Still, an entire day went by. I did as much a...

how I got suspended from facebook

I’ve never had a Facebook account. I enjoy social media—a constant feed of cool art, pet pics, and content from authors I enjoy—but I don’t attach my True Name to online dealings. I’m old-school like that. The internet is meant to be a world apart. Facebook is all about real-world connections and I ...
