Last Month

Was a bit of a disaster. I really shouldn't complain.

But the medical issues linger and a new ... annoyance.

I wake up in the morning now and my right hand has zero strength and does hurt when I try to grasp things. Part of me knows I'm getting old and I should be patient whenever there is an injury, but I don't know how it happened. I do know that for a few days that I wake up feeling soreness/numbness. There's no inflammation or discoloration that I can see, and it really does seem to be just the ringfinger.

Edema in the left foot is a problem. I'm sure it's the chair now. That and the lack of physical activity. But it's not serious, just the presence of it is distracting.

It's hit the productivity hard, and toss in having an impossible time to not waste time watching YouTube Shorts and that's the crux of my self-induced problems right now.

I have been playing with bones in DAZ Studio to get somehow figure out how to get bones to work with my wrestling ring but just can't figure it out. That kind of frustration is probably contributing to my sense of stagnation or lack of accomplishment but I really would like to have that kind of functionality, as I'm sure others would like to as well. Bones are superior to morphs because you get better control, even if morphs can give you a much better "final result" because of how morphs interpolate between start and end positions.

This is the reason why I've been holding off on updating the ring I posted a few months back.

I should join a gym and try to get some of this weight off, but I've been saying that for years. But I'm at a point where I'm really getting annoyed of being sick and tired. But I always hated the gym and always preferred other activities like martial arts, but all these schools here are shut down now.

So, I'm going to start blocking off Saturday evenings for livestreams. Not sure what they'll be about, and will probably be through Discord. I gave a shot last month and the audio didn't work. Still not sure why my microphone setup will not work at all. Not sure if it's the amplifier or if the input on the motherboard is zapped. Nothing is being detected, or at least the software inside Windows isn't detecting anything in the Mic In. Not entirely sure if there should be, but I expect it should be able to detect something.

I do have some poses I could also post, just wish I had a few more.

I also made some custom tattoos so I suppose I should take some time how to save skin materials but only somehow save the layer image editor (LIE) settings so they could be used over any base Genesis skin. The problem is that I do use the Base Colour layer so not quite sure how to accomplish that.

Anyways, enough whining and speculation. Time to get some stuff done.
