Slow day today. Woke up pretty late, folded pants laundry, got ready and finished around 11:30. Had a turkey egg lettuce cream cheese sandwich with the last of the cream cheese. Played Valor for 45 minutes or so and then went to Costco with my parents. I hung around my dad and we went around the place and he commented on things like the lightbulbs and the food processor and the discussion turned to business ventures late in life (prefer simpler, more convenient jobs with foot traffic but you risk theft and criminal activity). Got home around 4:30, too late for coffee so I made some genmaicha tea in my AeroPress and tasted quite nice for the first half of the mug but as it cooled it began to taste more and more bitter. Played Valor for a couple more hours, died quite a few times and felt really discouraged. Had some dinner around 7 or 8. Mom steamed five or six fish from Costco with some ginger and green onions and soy sauce and it was very savory. The fish itself also had a very meaty texture, very chewy. Got back on the computer, more Valor, this time really trying to focus on grinding for stat potions. Got some great progress on my Assassin character and splurged 30,000 in-game gold I had been saving up on a midgame/endgame bow. Seems I survive better the more DPS I have -- like not getting bogged down by the tiny hitters. Finally wrapped it all up around 11:30 and now I'm here wanting to get some more sleep for tomorrow with friends!
