Grind to the Nose-Stone

[digitalraven]

Back at work after three and a half weeks off, thanks to a combination of strike + snow.

• I slept an average of 1.5 hours a night more when striking. I did not (despite previous experiences) become a night-owl, I still went to bed between midnight and 1am, which is pretty standard.
• I ate healthier, both because I had more time and energy to cook and because I thought about food more. Some experiments didn’t work. Some were fucking fantastic.
• My mental health got a lot better. My mood was almost entire consistent throughout the period — and consistently good, at a level notably improved from what it was previously.

Those are some good effects. I wish I could have them in general, but that’d mean not working — which would mean no money, and thus no food or roof over my head.

It was nice while it lasted.
