Long time since an update post
Everything going good
Well mostly
Hemp got banned federally
Support your local black market
I still plan on ordering a little bit
Ban goes into effect nov 2026
I don’t get off probation until February or march 2027
Keep that section short and sweet
Ffxi is going great
Vanabout going on rn a great way to get deeds for mon trust he is so good and it seems like everyone has now so it’s time for me to get serious about it
Besides doing the daily vanabout stuff
I do dynad solo or low man daily farms for Gil
I also dig on 8 chars
Upbeat is rank 9 and the other chars are rank 5
Just waiting to get past rank 5 because around 6 or 7 it speeds up drastically
The difference in 5 mins and 3 mins doesn’t seem much but when ur doing it on 8 chars that’s the difference in 40 mins and 24 mins so a pretty big difference
Higher levels 7-10 are a lot more digs but you have much higher accuracy so even though it is more digs it feels faster than 4-5
Dyna d nets me about 1m per run and I can solo easily on bst
Posted some videos of it on YouTube
I have been asking ls if anyone wants to join and take them with me
But it eats into my profit so I think I’m going to stop asking
Probation
I started may 2025 it’s been 7 months I still have 5 months until I’ve been on a year
I got 2 years so 17 months to go
But I consider it 15
I either get off in February 2027 if judge approves time served or march 2027 if judge denies time served
So best case scenario
December 1, January- December 12, January and march 2 for 15
Not smoking or drinking is easy
I’m glad I can say I don’t need to smoke and stopping that was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done but it isn’t that glorious since I just smoke cigarettes now it’s not like I stopped smoking weed and just quit smoking I just took a really long break from weed and moved to cigarettes
Started smoking menthols I still smoke reds too but I really like how smooth and cool the menthols are they feel superior
Hemp ban, ffxi dailies, probation
What else
Work
It’s going. I like my schedule but that’s going to change soon
Hopefully I like the change
Working 6 hours a day 3 days a week so that gives me 4 days to focus on 11
But around thanksgiving I’m dropping to 2 days a week and the manager wants me to work more hours each day
So maybe like 9 hours a day on those 2 days
But I’ll probably get sent home early most of the time because all the work is done
Although I can probably milk the clock doing little things like picking up trash
Ohhh and why it isn’t so great
My ssi went down :( 500 dollars down !!!
I think it’s because in October I got 3 checks and they added everything up to find out what I would be paid
That’s fine it’s just that December is going to be very close
Rent bills 11 cigs probation fee
Ugh
But on the bright side ebt went up $40 it won’t make much of a difference but it is something
Hoping for January my ssi goes back up to the normal amount
If it stays low I’m basically screwed
I’ll have to ask someone for a loan unless I save everything dollar which I would rather do than asking for a loan
I have $80 I’ll get paid 370 and 360 so 80+370+360=810
810-600=210 210-80=130 130-50=80 80-60=20 I’m going to ask my mom to help by paying my phone so
20+30=50 then last but not least ffxi 50-21=29 so $29 for 2 whole weeks lol
I also have some ebt only $16
So I’ve got to make it 2 weeks with $45
Good thing I just spent $100 at the dollar store on food
Enough about budgeting and finances
Food situation is great right now
I’ve got fresh fruit
Oranges apples grapes
I got turkey breast and bologna
I’ve got hamburger buns bread and tortillas
I’ve got about 40 packs of ramen
I’ve got tuna packs I’ve got hot wings I’ve got 3 pizzas
I’ve got eggos oatmeal toaster studles and eggs for breakfast
I’ve got hamburger patties
I have a box of tea packets I have sugar
And I have pink lemonade water flavoring
I don’t think I’ve ever spent 100 and got so much stuff
It’s nearly the end of November and I still sleep with my ac set to 62 lol
I wear shorts to work in November lol
Sometimes I run my heater in the morning to get up but that’s it
I can’t wait until I run my heater for most of the day
Probably around the end of December or January
This is a strange year November the 22 and it isn’t even cold yet
Makes me think it’ll be cold longer but I pretty much know it warms up in April
Just think once winter is over we’ve got like 2 months and it’s summer
Then during the entire summer I’ll hopefully have my awesome ac unless something terrible happens
So every day in the hot Texas summer weather I’ll be able to come home to a chilly apartment
That’s exciting
22nd and landlord still hasn’t came to pick up rent. That means I’ve had rent for 27 days and he hasn’t shown up lol
I wouldn’t be surprised if he doesn’t come until next month is due and I wind up paying 2 months of rent at once
No one wants to hold that much money for that long when it’s a necessity lol
Well it’s 4am I have to be up by 10am I took a 3 hour nap when I got home today I’m not tired at all
But I just turned my ac to 62 and it’s cooling off so I’m going to try to get some sleep
Just haven’t felt like anything interesting has happened
Mostly all the same stuff
Just doing all I can to get through the days quicker
Have the weeks and months fly so I can get back to smoking what I want
I want to smoke but it’s weird
I don’t really want to smoke weed I can’t even imagine what it does besides what I remember which is basically making everything perfect and better
Ffxi food sleep movies music work cleaning budgeting showering
And the weird feeling of like having echolocation
Where it’s like your sitting in your apartment alone and you are so high you can feel the people around you and even far away know your high because patterns or numbers in their normal work routine
To smoke habitually for 12 years then wing yourself off for about a year then go 2 more years without smoking at all and find zero benefits to not smoking then finally after 3 years start back up again
I’m so excited
I’m going to be primarily a blunt smoker this go around
I want dabs but it’s kinda intrusive when I make them it smells everything up
And I don’t think I want a bong or a pipe
I just want to smoke blunts lol
Never cared much for joints
And I’m good at rolling blunts
And the accomplishment aspect of doing the entire probation duration without smoking or drinking once. I should get a gold star or an achievement if I can pull that off
Looking at it like it’s something that every smoker goes through eventually and just how hard are you going to make it on yourself
And the accomplishment of actually making it 2 years
So cool if I take anything from probation I want to be able to say I didn’t smoke for 2 solid years
Which is why I don’t want to smoke right now
But the day they say I can
Which they never do you just have to believe in god
Yeah I’m going to be smoking until I pass out waking up and smoking until I pass out again
It’s going to be like I work my 2 days then the other 5 days go by in 5 mins and I’m already back at work for the 2 days because all I do when I’m off is smoke until I pass out wake up and repeat
Hopefully ffxi can keep me focused while I’m high as I can possibly get to make the off days feel a little longer at least
It’s like I enjoy myself I like what I do but I don’t really have fun
When I’m doing what I do now plus drinking plus smoking I’m going to be having so much fun the most fun I’ve ever had
It’s going to go by so much faster
And that’s my update for now
Thank you
