January 2nd 2023. Meh day today. Woke up earlier than usual. Had a turkey lettuce sandwich for breakfast. Played Valor for an hour before 11:30am, made some coffee around 11:35, 24g and 400ml on Ode grind setting 5.1, two filters on Hario Switch, brewed directly into my metal water bottle. This is probably the best cup of coffee I've had on this roast so far. The roasty flavor lingers but it's there's very little acrid flavor. Bitterness was also a bit pulled back and I could just barely get a hint of acidity. I think for medium roasts I'll have to set a benchmark with McDonald's coffee -- that stuff is VERY well extracted, at least the last time I had it which was... maybe a few months ago. I know I put it here on Stream. I drove to work and arrived at 12:05 and worked until 5:15pm or so when my parents came back from Costco. Around 4 I helped my uncle install FL Studio on his M3 Mac. (Earlier my dad had taken my grandma to the doctor's for an appointment.) After that I played Valor for a couple hours and dropped 14,000 gold or so on a dagger for my Rogue but didn't really feel that into it. I didn't quite feel I was melting the godlands monsters and the event drops were to me indistinguishable from what I could get on a much weaker weapon. The only difference with a weaker weapon is that it just feels less satisfying to wrack up damage. I was also kind of meh from my Priest dying which I wanted to buy a laser wand for. I think that one was a UFO and a chance shot. Congrats game. The rest of the day was just back on my Mac.
