just got my time tracker set up… it feels good. just ‘clocked in’ at 22:50 – gonna write this blog post til 23:00 then clock out of work after 10 minutes of it lol. then chill for the last hour of the day, then start the 23rd (thanksgiving) off with the plan that i wanted to start the 20th off with this time tracker clock thing.

to explain what im talking about – i made a spreadsheet with some javascript code that allows me to click on a couple of buttons to clock in and clock out and have my time recorded in the things im doing. for now i only have 2 buttons so i split it up in between ‘work’ and ‘chill’. my goal is to track every hour for the next 2 years and aim for 80% work, 20% chill. i think need to put that in for the next 2 years AT LEAST to accomplish even 1/5th of the things that i want to do with my life. i could always aim for more, and i will, but for now i think this hits a pretty fair balance between challenging/obtainable goal.

just checked the calender and apparently november does end on an even 30 days, which marks tomorrow as the last week of the penultimate month of this year, 2017. it’s been a crazy one. honestly, i thought it was gonna be a little crazier in terms of things i did in my own personal life – but i do feel like it was a good set up year for more things to come – both for better and for worse. idk if any of that makes sense but i g2g now bye see you soon with more crazyyytimetrackingswutevers

i finished the video and feel really good but i got an error in my code but i asked the guy that made the video for help, hopefully he replies. for now, i’ll keep manually tracking time on here. ideally though, i fix it tomorrow and transfer all data to the new “system” and time track through there for now.

today kinda sucked… but im vibin out to reid stefan tutorials now so it’s okay. gonna get on the grind. actually this time. like, for real for real. only i can prove it now is by actually doing ‘it.’ because at this point im the boy who cried “ima git my shit together.”

before i forget – i had the idea to map my day through my 3-4 meals and the hours between them. e.g:

24hrs/day – 4 (1)hour “lunch breaks?” = 20hrs/day – 7(1/2)hrs sleep + 30mins (15mrn,15ngt) = (20-8) = 12hrs left to work/chill… so.. e.g. again:

*

00:00 – EAT
01:00 – work/chill
02:00 – work/chill
03:00 – work/chill
04:00 – sleep
05:00 – sleep
06:00 – sleep
07:00 – sleep
08:00 – sleep
09:00 – wake/EAT
10:00 – work
11:00 – work
12:00 – work/snack
13:00 – work/
14:00 – EAT
15:00 – work
16:00 – work
17:00 – work
18:00 – BIPHASIC NAP (2O MINS MAX)
19:00 – EAT
20:00 – work/chill
21:00 – work/chill
22:00 – work/chill
23:00 – work/chill

up before 11:00. yay. did a lot of good work last night. yay. gotta keep this momentum going. yay.

< 09:27

07:48PM or 19:48 (19:54 by the time it took me to figure out how to make it show up that way on my computer screen)

ok anyway. i have a lot of thoughts going on and already wasted a bunch of their existence in my memory on energy in order to figure out how to do that… as well as try to make this sentence work.

idk wtf im saying, not a writer, not yet. point is – im gonna take time right now to dedicate to this website and it’s existence as well as others in the world and life and stuff. so yeah. im gonna start out with a list of THINGS I WANT TO BE GOOD AT. just had that idea. thats it thats what its gonna be called. an eternally growing list of things i want to be good at that i jot down and make goals toward and manage and stuff. idk if that make sense but here it goes. im gonna put that “page” inside another “page” called “PAGES”. then ill put that as like a drop down menu tab from the home screen or something or maybe make it’s own page too if it gets big enough which i think it maybe probably will.

so yeah im gonna go do that now but first i want to say what i want my first THING(s) to be is.

HUMAN

the first thing i want to be good at is human.

^ i think i finally found a format i like. i think a lot of things are coming together tonight. i think i am about to make a big update to this website and i think i am going to make this section of ‘it’ (the blog/website) the update log. it will keep track of updates both to itself and of my life. i will still keep this section to be my go to random rantings outlet. sort of like my totally public online journal i guess. that’s one way to say it… i don’t know if i like that way of saying it, but that is one way to say it.

anyways. i just finished an analog web design drawing that i want to implement into this website now. i’m thinking about taking a picture and posting it to here but i’m not sure. i don’t know why. i’ll decide later but for now i’m just going to start working on the website. hopefully i’ll get to implement some code-intensive stuff, but i think most of it is going to be surface level stuff handled by the blogger interface or whatever like moving tabs and posts around and stuff. definitely planning on making the eventual switch over to wordpress or even a more indivually hosted option if ever possible.

alright enough babbling. bye/

holy shit i did it. i powered through. got caught up on a couple things here and there but i think i actually accomplished everything i wanted to with this website tonight for the most part. just had a pretty cool mind blow throw back to happy new year on january 1st of this year on my blog archive. i surprised myself and didn’t realize i actually managed to make at least 1 post a month this whole year. in fact, january is the only month with only 1 post. february has two, and then i kinda go crazy from there. so that’s cool. really cool. i feel good. i hope whoever is reading this for whatever reason does too.

so, i said i was also going to treat this thing as an update log for the site so here it goes:

– changed main header title of blog from “nateqdruen” to “n a t e q d r u e n . c o m”… hope that’s not cheese
– collapsed blog archive from ‘hierarchy’ to ‘flat list’ of months with # of all posts in said months.
– combined ‘home’ and ‘about.me’ tabs into the front page
– removed/added new tabs, any missing old tabs are now added to the new ‘PAGES’ tab and that is where all links to future pages and different projects will go.
– that’s all folks
