01.06.22 – Time to Get Some Reading Done

I’m not going to complain about work today. It was pretty chill. I mean, no boss onsite. So I was pretty much doing whatever. And before you judge me, I did get my shit done before I started lazy-ing it up. My motto for work is to do the bare minimum to get the job done. I do not get anything from stressing myself out and adding so much to my plate. I do less but I do it well. I am done with going above and beyond. Been there done that. It is a waste of time. All it does is for the company to expect that kind of level of work from you and if you decide to stop doing it, you are branded as lazy. So, no thank you. I work within the limits of my pay. 

Anyway, I was busy this whole time playing with Notion. I am fully transitioning to digital now. For a while, I was lost as to what I would be doing for 2023. I have quite a few unused notebooks and I would like to use them. So I decided to partially set up a reading journal, but it hit me the other day, I did not want to do it. I do not want to keep drawing this and that, create this table and that. Sure going digital needs some kind of set up too, but everything is in a database. And can be linked together. My reading log and journal are connected to one calendar, and I am still trying to figure out if I can link my trackers to the same calendar. I’m pretty sure there is a way. I just need to figure it out.

I am planning on reading again tonight. I am feeling a lot better today compared to yesterday, so I should be able to read for a few hours. I have been reading sporadically the whole day so it’s not like I did not put in some reading today if I decide not to read at all tonight. But I do want to read some chapters of The Laughing Corpse. I cannot read a book freely at work, so I was mostly reading webtoons the whole day. But with novels, I prefer to read a physical copy. I was never a fan of eBooks. And audiobooks are a no-go for me. Anyway, I am having issues putting The Laughing Corpse down. I remember why inhaled these books back in the day. So fast-paced, and crazy, and there is just always happening in each chapter. This series is definitely a page-turner.

Anyway, nothing much going on tomorrow. Just stopping by Costco to get some stuff. I am already doing laundry tonight so I would not have to do it tomorrow. I do want to hang out with my man tomorrow – watch some anime since we are in that kick. We are not big movie people. Anime yes. Some series yes. But it is very rare that we watch movies, now that I think about it.
