Can’t sleep – rambalings

I can’t sleep.

I got into another argument today about the pyramids at Giza. This time it was about the number of pyramids on the plateau. There is more than three, and yes, Khufu’s pyramid has eight sides.

The last few days haven’t been that exciting. I have tried out two new smartwatches. The first one I got just didn’t work out for what I need it for – keeping accurate step count.

Since I compete on both Fitbit and Strava, I needed a watch which can upload to both accurately.

The first watch I got; Ticwatch pro, over two days provided three different step counts to three various programs. I have no idea what was going on. That combined with a battery life of about 17 hours just made it impossible to use. It’s too bad; I really did like the watch.

Today I got the Fitbit Ionic, and I love it. For the same price, it doesn’t do nearly as many cool things; however, it does accurately keep track of steps for both platforms.

I haven’t been able to sleep lately. I don’t know what it is. I guess I’m just hitting that age.

I ordered Gharam Hancock’s new book about America. I’ve heard him talk about it several times and it is fascinating. I think I am going to see him this Sunday. It hasn’t been fully confirmed yet.

Of course, the one thing I have to ask him about is how he gets his DMT. I realize he lives in the UK, so it’s different laws, but I’m really curious. I would love to try it.

I keep meaning to get a kindle paperwhite so I can read at night rather than watch stuff off my server. It is better for the eyes and brain.

The uprising in Venezuela is going on its second day. This couldn’t happen at a better time, as it shows what happens when a socialist country runs out of rich people’s money and has no more to spend.

On the plus side, I walked over 30 K the last two days trying to get my many new watches to work correctly. Sadly I got credit for about 25 K.

There isn’t anything really on my mind. I want to go play video games, but I’m trying to… I don’t know what exactly, but it’s not playing video games.

My grammar has been terrible as I write this. It shows my sleepy my mind is, yet my body feels wide awake. Maybe I shouldn’t have eaten all those dates. But dates are so good; they are like candy only better because they’re from nature. Sadly, they have the same effect as candy.

Tigger is so sweet. I don’t want her to die. She’s also one of the prettiest cat’s I’ve ever seen. Her biological sister; Gizmo, looked like a crazy lunatic and she was.
