An excellent day. Praticed boxe again, started today. It's been years I stopped. Totally forgotten the good sensation it gave me. My back, my shoulders, my hips and arms are full of stiffness. Can hardly move. Obviously lost a lot my endurance compared to the past. Well, it will be fixed in a few months, with a severe training and running everyday, the good news being that reflexes and automatisms are still there even if slower than what they used to be.
Years ago, I praticed thai boxing, and I was good at that. But I got tired of it after a few years, lack of time included, I gave up. The coach, passionate about his job, never really forgave me. He keeps blaming for my decision everytime he sees me from time to time. I missed that sport, so here I am again. Now going with something a bit different, english boxing in another place. Defensive positions are not the same. Don't need to care about protecting what is below the belt, will have to get used to that.
I was also used to use my legs, knees and elbows with thai boxing when hitting, not anymore, now, only my hands allowed. Interesting. Restrictive but interesting. English boxing is really cool, intense and very effective. Though, I keep thinking that Thai boxing is the best type to defend itself in a random streetfight . You could have four guys against you, a factor that wouldn't really matter, and you could still be easily successful, as it already happened once in my life experience. You are trained to accept the pain and to deal with it, and develop an absolute but controlled rage to do as much harm as possible in the most precise and quickest manner and frighten the enemy immediately. If you fear to harm or to be harmed, it's not for you for sure, you cannot be at your best. Agressiveness is required, more than that, encouraged. English boxing is a bit the same. Despite being a different sport, I didn't feel lost, it pleases me very much too. Gotta keep doing it. The guy who helped to train me for my first session suspected I already did that type of thing, after watching my first steps and performance. I guess, this is a good point.
A bit lost my fighting spirit while growing up and starting to work, being more interested into women, fun parties, video games, streaming and internet lol. Lost passion for boxing and other sports. I became a little too soft, tolerating bad behaviors I wouldn't have tolerated in the past. A lot of disrespectful young men nowadays, who think they can do whatever the hell they want. At 19 years old, I was trained, hard and fearless, I didn't give a shit who could be my opponent, even if he was ten years older than me, and how many they could be. I'd like to come back quickly to that mindset I lost. The first session has already had an effect on me, it pleases me very much. In six-eight months, things will probably have changed.
I also love that new club. It's open everyday, from the morning to very late the night, while with my previous thai boxing club there was only two training, each one specific day every week, + competition the sunday. Now If I miss a training, I could totally catch up whenever I want.

I still didn't get to play MEA yet.
However, yesterday at sunset I met a lovely, educated, graceful woman who stopped her car to talk to me when she witnessed my goings on along the shore. And what a night under the moonlight and stars. Plans for today and looking well for the future. Like synchronicity.

Pulled a tick out of my back, the second one this week. Should stop sitting in the grass. Thankfully, I have a good immune system.

Warning: when any of you ever visit the Netherlands and go to a certain place called 'Friettent', 'Snackbar', or 'Cafetaria', to get fries/chips ('Friet' in the Southern part, or 'Patat' in the central and northern part of the Netherlands), whether Dutch, French, or Flemish-sized fries: Avoid those snackbars run by Asians like the plague.
They simply CANNOT bake good fries. I've tried several of these 'friettenten' in my area, and for some reason, the Asians (Chinese/Vietnamese, but also the Turks) for some reason don't 'get' it.
They either use old fat to deepfry, which gives a nasty aftertaste, or they're just fat flappy feeble shitsticks without any bit of crunchiness at all, or they simply lack taste (an amazing feat actually...).
Yes I've run into one of them again. I'm in the process of moving to a new home, but since the new residence is a bit out of the way of the snackbar I usually went to, I'm in search of a new one. So I tried the closest one within 5 minutes of walking distance, and it's run by an Asian couple. Against better judgement I ordered there anyway but the fries were flacid mushy fucktwigs...
Don't get me wrong: I have nothing against Chinese or Thai or whatever, but they shouldn't try making Dutch/Belgian fastfood and just stick with preparing Chinese food, where they're good at.

After a chaotic start the evening turned the day fucking amazing. One highlight was invoking the Night and the Furies release. I'd say "again" but the prelude is not something that anyone would want to do again. Exhausted but inspired I expire.

It was pretty good. During my shift downtime I setup a virtual Linux box. 32 bit version of Kbuntu. Gave it a gig of ram, and 70% of a single processor. Still runs poorly, so I need to play with the settings a bit. Not sure what I'm going to do with it either. But I did it!

Detached, anomalous and languid despite what I have sitting next to me a lot of the time. It's arduous to procure the candle shining lethargically in the dark chasm that unfailingly keeps me captive. Everything feels like a never ending atramentous tenantless.
Other than that I've had some alcohol, sweet luscious intoxicant.

Work was magnificently boring, but I bought beer and chips since this weekend is the 24 hour race of Le Mans, the biggest motor sports event in the world. I have a sports channel abo that allows me to watch the whole 24 hours with no commercial breaks - and that is what I am going to do! Can't wait for the race, its so amazing to watch the beautiful cars screaming down the straights with over 340 km/h /210mph at dawn.

So far it's pretty good. I'm on my way soon to visit my sister at my uncles place, she's visiting from the U.K. And we're gonna have some coffee together with my mom there. It'll be nice I think.

Moved all my family and my stuff over to my new home today. Since the last time we moved it went pretty dramatic (we hired some dude with a van, but man...), we hired professional movers, which is expensive, but the ones we got were relatively cheap. So the whole moving part, including the floor, was over after just 5 hours, and went pretty much without stress or anything. In the afternoon I went out and got some Dutch Fries (but at a different joint than the one above...), and they were actually pretty decent (Dutch woman preparing them so... not to be racist or anything... ah well...). And now I finished preparing the desk, the internet connection wiring stuff, and my computer, and now I'm writing this while enjoying a fine local brew by Van Moll (yes beer, what else? And yes I'm advertising to help local breweries get more name recognition!).

Good day despite the bad weather; I mean it's been raining on/off every day for the past two weeks. Got a chance to take my dog to the local dog park, with her rolling around on a dead armadillo on the way there. Had to hose her off at the park, with her doggy friends sniffing her like she's catnip.
I've spent part of my day contemplating on whether I should get a workout bench, a heavy bag stand or a barbell first, and get the others a little later.
Bench - allows me some elevation whenever I operate dumbbells and provides some stability for cardio-based exercises Heavy bag stand - allows me to use my heavy bag for something other than fireman carrying and I won't have to drill another large hole in my wall Barbell with weights - allows me to explore new ways for my body to be exercised, since I'm getting interested in actually building muscle, and 35lb/15kg dumbbells hurt my hand. Yes, I'm weak.
Decisions, decisions...

Watching the qualifying for the big 24 hour race . Oh boy, the Corvette C7R. :gasp: All the cars sound like angry bees but the Corvette sounds like an angry stampede of raging rhinos.
Those are great, I hope they'll win in their class.

It's been weird. Got a new headset in the mail last night, a Beexcellent GM2. Based on a recent review on Amazon, the wireless range is far wider than you might expect from a normal one. There's a caveat, though:
Being fastidious with major purchases, I took the details on this headset and noticed a paradox. As has become growingly popular in some gaming software, this hardware tracks other information for feedback purposes. The detailed write-up discuss an alternative to this problem that, as much as I appreciate their effort, is unable to remedy it. They're using a notification system to alert what and when information is being retrieved.
But that's the thing. For whoever made the purchase, there's no way to irrefutably know that it's been changed, only that there's been a notification. Call me a paranoid buyer, but I couldn't in good conscience persist with that. And for as long as I use headsets for nighttime playthroughs, this is a serious stalemate.

A fucking roller-coaster of emotion Is everything ok? My day was pretty decent. I can't say it was great, but I can't say it was bad in anyway either. Went to a board gaming event, and had a decent time. Played Jenga, and ticket to ride. Jenga was rather enjoyable, and while I enjoyed ticket to ride, others didn't. Had fun with a cute girl too, she was funny, smart, a bit competitive, and laughed at a few of my jokes (which is exceptionally rare). I told her about another board gaming event happening next week, and I'm hoping she's willing to attend then too. Next I came home, had some fun in rimworld. I haven't fired up my colony on my laptop in a while, so I did so today. And made some nice progress in it too. Also, I ordered a powered usb hub for my work machine. I've been suspecting that the power draw for that old box's usb controller is being overdrawn. Only 2 of the usb ports on the back are able to read the keyboard/mouse, and recently my cell phone stopped charging off the back ports. I left my cable plugged into the front for now. But with a powered hub, the powerdraw isn't an issue (or a significantly less issue), only the data transfer rate. The hub has way too many ports for my uses, but since I share the desk with 2 others, maybe they can find a use for the other ports. This is is assuming that nobody just up and takes the hub. But we can cross that bridge of distrust and paranoia, when we get too it. Overall, that cute girl made the night go from ok, to decent. And I'm hoping to see her again.

Not much sleep in the last 24 hours, 650km of driving, field work. Hopefully more sleep this night.
