Yesterday I did nothing and it was everything.

Well, I did play some Guitar Hero for the first time in like 15 years and was reminded that it’s not like riding a bike…and that concentrating too hard on the scrolling notes can make me 😵‍💫 afterwards. Humbling on many levels, for all of us. Even the cocky kid who thought he was going to shred the expert level after such a long absence.

“…was it always that fast? I don’t remember it being that fast. Something’s wrong with this game. Or the controller.”

Sure, kid. Sure 🙄.


Anyway, a day of nothingness was sublime. But today will be the exact opposite and I’m ready for it…? Maybe. The jury is still out on that until the umph really sets in. Might have to put on my shoes to trick my brain into thinking we’re about to up it a notch, but effort < sitting with a cup of warm coffee while finger combing my hair. I’ll get there eventually, she says as she contemplates playing My Name is Jonas a dozen times in an attempt to once again master that one hurdle of a bridge that’ll be playing on 🔁 in my head all day long.

This reminds me of playing Halo and Call of Duty online with my boys. It was a lot of fun until I started getting frustrated because I couldn’t compete with all of those kids online. I finally retired from the Xbox years ago! 🫤🤣

@PerfectionOfTheHeart I was so bad at COD I had to resort to being a dreaded ‘camper’ to rack up most of my kills! lol

@Mako2u Haha. I should’ve done that when I tried it. I’d get so excited seeing a member of the enemy team I could take out that I couldn’t control my aim properly and coordinate my shots enough to be effective. Just felt the pressure and anxiety of getting them before they got me.

@PerfectionOfTheHeart ..that was my problem too! I couldn’t compete with those kids reflexes. They were just too quick! I think some of them must have had some cheat codes or something! lol
I was hunkered down in the corner of a room one time killing several guys as soon as they entered the room. They kept coming after me. Finally, I started dying when no one was in the room. I’m like, what is going on here??? Some guy was shooting me through the dang wall from outside the building!!! I hung up my controller after that! 🫤🤣

Keep it in those top of the stack memories for next time.

I get to open this gift next week. My mind and soul need it in the worst way.

@SW-User I feel like that was something incorporated in the Wii fitness game…
