This morning I slept in until 10:00AM and it was really nice. Then I got up and fiddled around on the internet for awhile before running on the elliptical and getting ready.

At one o'clock I headed to my Mom's house for Easter lunch. I nearly lost it going around a roundabout because there was freezing rain and it was apparently a bit slick. But I arrived in one piece. Ate a good lunch, met my Mom's boyfriend's son for the first time (he seems like a pretty good guy), and later on we got Easter stuff. My Mom gave me a card with a math problem on the outside and the answer inside. The outside: “Suzie has 10 jelly beans. Timmy took 7. What is Timmy?” The inside: “Timmy is an asshole. Happy Easter.” It's pretty great.

When I got home I set up the air compressor and put air in my tires. The weather has been all over the place lately and my tires don't know what to do with themselves. After that I decided to be a little more productive and I ironed my pants for the week. Now I don't have to worry about doing that each morning. Then I watched videos and looked at plans for workbenches and various brush pens, because my interests are all over the place right now.

After dinner I played CoD: WW2 and prestiged for the eighth time. Max prestige is ten, which definitely seems within reach at this point. Once you get to ten, instead of the level stopping at fifty-five, it just keeps going. I like that because I like leveling up, and it gets kind of boring if there isn't the leveling up aspect. I probably wouldn't lose interest in Tera so quickly if I could continue gaining levels after sixty-five. There is still stuff to do in that game after maxing out, but that requires more time and effort than I'm willing to give. I just want to level up.

Anyway, it's after midnight and I'm tired. Still no audio journal. It's going to be a pain to catch up on those but I still plan on doing it. Tonight I'm going to sleep in a recliner because my left eye is still being a nuisance and I want to try and keep the swelling down a little bit. Sleeping in a more upright position will help that. At least I think it will. That may have only been helpful when I also had the issue with my upper eyelid. The swelling didn't seem to go down much throughout the day today, but we'll see what things look like in the morning. Probably the same, but I can try to be optimistic.
