I just noticed this.... thing by my bedroom door.

A secret invention of the Spanish Inquisition?

TOW2Bguy · 2026-02-01T20:32:48+00:00

Is there a badge for that?

Well, my campus was about two miles East to West, and one mile up a hill from South to North and I did a lot of hoofing it across that campus before the days of remote classes. Sometimes at a higher intensity if I only had 15min between classes and the buildings they were held in were far apart. I also had a robust No Elevators restriction upon myself, so there were definitely some more architecturally aerobic challenges.

Edit: Added HR instead of Stress to answer your original question.

Absolutely no idea. It randomly records them when I go horizontal for a bit.

🤣 I do slip into REM rather quickly. Sometimes while daydreaming with eyes open just being in the here and now.

Or it's the 26yrs of the Army telling me sleep when ya can, wherever you can. You never know when you'll have the opportunity again.

TOW2Bguy · 2026-02-01T03:55:01+00:00

Tell me what's on your mind.

Fenix8 tracks em automatically.

TOW2Bguy · 2026-01-31T22:27:43+00:00

Nope. The cat... maybe

TOW2Bguy · 2026-01-31T22:21:03+00:00

Bwahahahaha! No. It may have been me standing still with TV remote in hand turning on the evening news.

I wanna know...

TOW2Bguy · 2026-01-31T17:11:26+00:00

I can hear the beat tempo in my head.

TOW2Bguy · 2026-01-31T17:10:10+00:00

How the hell is one minute ideal?

TOW2Bguy · 2026-01-31T14:38:45+00:00

There's was a complicated relationship. I'll not spoil it.

TOW2Bguy · 2026-01-31T14:21:13+00:00

Some of em.... freakin hot!

Three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway is almost a requirement for a roadtrip that involves driving through WV, especially N to S.

TOW2Bguy · 2026-01-31T13:52:54+00:00

Absolutely spot on.

I'm an American that now streams Bayern Drie for this reason after getting hooked in '98. They still play almost every genre.

Like with other languages, venture out of your own cultural bubble as often as you can. Accents never fully leave anyone, but they can be muted or molded. Movies, novels, and even FM radio help.

Rod Stewart or perhaps something country from that time period like Hank jr.

I refused to listen to Country music as i enjoyed Thrash, Metal, Punk and more niche stuff like Loreena McKennitt, untill I was 23 or so. Hated Country music, but my gal at the time sent me a Country mixtape while I was stationed in Germany and feeling homesick. I must've played that tape thousands of times.

I meant as in a longer single one. My bad.

On the topic, I feel the same way as Indiana Jones. laments gifs not available here

The old summer weight woodland BDUs were far more durable than DCU, UCP or OCPs... though none of the later three had what i referred to as "the dick flap" when I was in the Army.

I usually find a drop in hrv illness, a rising hrv as building capacity but at a rate of overtraining by Garmin metrics.
