Nearing the end of the second week that I've spent sheltering-in-place
with my girlfriend. Overall, the experience has been extremely
pleasant--we're getting along well, and overall staying sane.
We've been eating rather well, preparing each meal thoroughly and
getting quite a bit of baking done. We've made three loaves of bread
so far (sandwich, banana, rustic sourdough) and a batch of killer
brownies.

I am probably not working as hard as I should be on securing a job.

I have gotten sucked into preparing a tabletop setting for my group--
we're going to try play-by-post for the first time, and I'm devising
a sort of post-cyberpunk setting that has some good potential.

Because I have a wild hair up my ass, and because I'm a bit of a
masochist, I'm homebrewing a ruleset to accompany the setting.
Once it gets to a reasonable level of polish, I'll post it here
and on the html blog.

There are two things that I want to get much better about: meditating,
and exercise. I now have all the time in the world, but haven't carved
out any time for meditation. I go out running/walking with my 
girlfriend on most days, but I am not really *pushing* my body properly,
which I ought to be.

That's all for now, I think. I hope everyone reading is staying safe
and sane.
