sleeplog - 111825

Well, it's been three weeks on lion's mane.  I'm settled on its positive effects on my sleep cycle.  It feels like the cure I needed.  The tea seems more directly efficacious than the supplements; I will admit that over the last 3 days there have been some symptoms of (seasonal) depression, but overall it's leavened by my ability to be rational & separate myself from my racing thought BS.  So what feel like a precipitous mood swing is kept in check: by me.  A win, again.

On the downside I lost track of my work schedule and didn't realize I'd be on deck today, so what I thought would be a 2-day break so I could focus on art is instead me being thrown right back into it.  The lion's mane has helped me be more focused & consistent on the prep end, but even so I'm an old man & tire easily; Sunday I didn't have a break, so even though I sailed through the 8 hours with almost no mistakes, by the final stretch I'd fucked up a basic detail & the whole batch had to be re-measured.

No rep for the wiggy, to twist a phrase.  Errors like that are why I haven't gotten a raise, I'm certain.  And that's reason #1 I slipped into a brief funk.  Because I should be making more money.  Siegfried at least can make money off his art.  I'm not even pulling that off r.n.  I should be ahead of the game: of the two of us, I'm the one without crushing student debt!!  Gah.  Finances.  Abhor thinking about this stuff...

Whatevs.  I have the Burroughs Folio working, I'm drawing, and I'm even scripting on Promiseland & Kill House, again.  Any forward motion is motion, forwarded: the wave of a hand sets the wind roiling.
